Effective December 12, 2025, you will no longer be able to create new Pre-Approvals in the Legacy Travel System. All new travel pre-approvals must be submitted in SAP Concur starting on this date.

We've seen strong adoption of Concur over the past several weeks, and many travelers are already benefiting from its modern interface, integrated booking tools, and faster, more accurate processing.

Planning Travel After Spring Break?

Please begin using SAP Concur now. We expect to fully retire the Legacy System before the end of the spring semester, and shifting early will help avoid delays.
