Edit, Cancel, or Reverse a Travel Authorization or Encumbrance
Important Notes:
Travel Authorizations (TAs) may be edited by the preparer if their status is Saved, Submitted, or Needs Revision. TAs with a status of Approved, Canceled, or Denied cannot be edited.
TAs that have been submitted and approved, even by a single approver, cannot be canceled by anyone other than the department member with business manager access.
If you have questions about who the designated business manager is for your department, please contact p2p_reimbursements@boisestate.edu
Access the TA Application and locate the request
Login to the Travel Authorization application.
Select the Search tab or locate the Travel Authorization from the Submitted Requests list. All Travel Authorization fields are searchable. Search by term or travel dates and click Submit.
Edit or Cancel the Travel Authorization
Select the Edit icon next to the appropriate Travel Authorization.
Make desired edits to Travel Authorization and select Submit to route the Travel Authorization through the approval workflow.
If canceling the Travel Authorization, add Comment (required) and select Cancel Request.
If travel will not occur, the Travel Authorization must be canceled by selecting Cancel Request.

Reverse Encumbrance
There are two common situations for reversing encumbrances:
Expense Report has not been paid
Select Reverse Encumbrance to request a reversal. The reversal will be processed within one week of the request.
Only employees with Business Manager Access can complete this task
Expense Report has been paid but the encumbrance is still there a week or longer after the payment has been made
Submit an OCI ticket and select the following
Report an issue with an existing financial transaction, HR action, approval workflow or readiness testing
Financial Transaction
Requesting an encumbrance reversal is required when an Expense Report will not be submitted for the Travel Authorization or the Travel Authorization Number was not included on the Expense Report.
