Unused travel authorizations that have been budget checked can be canceled by the originator using the Employee Self-Service navigation or by a system administrator using the Travel and Expense navigation.
For approved travel authorizations, navigate to the Cancel Approved Travel Authorization page, select the desired travel authorizations to cancel, and click the Cancel Selected Travel Authorization(s) button. This triggers an automatic budget checking process to reverse out encumbrances that were previously recorded.
Administrators can cancel, in batch mode, budget-checked travel authorizations with a status of Approved. The Cancel Travel Authorization process budget checks travel authorizations to liquidate their encumbrances in the commitment control ledgers.
Note: You cannot delete travel authorizations that have been budget checked.
Use the Cancel Approved Travel Authorization page (TE_CANCEL_TAUTH) to cancel approved travel authorization requests.
Navigation:
The cancel process closes travel authorizations and reverses encumbrances if the travel authorization was already budget checked. If a travel authorization is partially through the year-end process and the encumbrances are already reversed, the system simply closes the travel authorization.
Use the Cancel Travel Authorizations page (EX_BGTCHK_TAUTH) to cancel submitted or approved travel authorizations in batch mode.
