The UW requires pre-approval for some expenses, but not others.
It can be confusing to determine when you need to get pre-approval, and when you don’t. For example, the Official Functions and Expenses Form is also required for many non-event expenses.
We created a KB doc on Official Functions vs. Business Meals that:
- explains the difference between official functions and business meals
- provides examples for both
- lists required documentation
The KB doc also links to the official policy which contains extensive examples and to the pre-approval form.
