DOI Travel Policy requires Federal employees to book airfare, lodging and rental car in CGE and/or with the TMC (see allowed exceptions for lodging in the DOI Travel Policy Handbook) for TDY travelDo not use the Government issued charge card for internet purchases (other than CGE) or anythird party reservation services, (example: no Travelocity, Hotels.com, 1-800-Hotels, or any other third party reservation service, no direct airlines, no direct rental cars, no direct lodging (unless allowed exception), and no advance payments)

Concur Government Edition (CGE)

Contact the DOI Concur Help Desk: travel_helpdesk@ios.doi.gov or 1-855-847-6398 option 1 for assistance with CGE system issues related to the following:• Issues with booking reservations in CGE• TA and/or TV issues• login issues• password resets• to unlock a locked login account or travel document

Contact the TMC directly to book reservations when unable to do so in CGE, next day/same day travel, emergency responder travel (firefighters, threatened law enforcement), and to make changes to existing, already ticketed reservations

TMC – 1-855-847-6398 option 2 - Duluth Travel Inc. (DTI) (travelers duty stationed in the lower 48 states)option 3 - El Sol (travelers duty stationed in Alaska)Option 5 – Travelers related to fire, law enforcement, and natural disaster emergencies

8

• Duluth/El Sol and CGE are separate entities. The TMCs send the reservation data into CGE. There are times the reservation expense amounts do not update automatically/correctly in the Travel Authorization (TA) or Travel Voucher (TV). Travelers, reviewers, and approvers must review the reservation expense amounts in the Reservation Details section of the Summary Tab, and, the Expenses & Receipts Tab prior to submitting, to ensure the amount for the reservation(s) (air, rental car) are correct/included in the TA/TV.

Concur Government Edition (CGE) Continued:

9

• When reservation changes/exchanges are initiated, the amounts should automatically update in the travel document. The traveler MUST ensure those changes reflect the correct amounts in the travel document prior to signing. If the amounts do not automatically update, the amounts must be manually updated or added. Contact the DOI Concur Help Desk for assistance if necessary.

Concur Government Edition (CGE) Continued:

10

• Long Term/extended TDY details of more than 30 days - use the interim voucher functionality in CGE; see user guide on BIE Concur Sharepoint site and/or contact help desk (contact info below). If TDY trips are to be taken during a long term/extended TDY details, please contact the DOI Concur Help Desk at travel_helpdesk@ios.doi.gov or 1-855-847-6398 option 1 to initiate a remedy ticket for assistance. Long term/extended TDY details can be complex, and become even more so when side TDY trips will also be taken during the extended TDY. IA Federal Agency Travel Administrator (FATA) will assist to ensure the documents are setup and submitted correctly.

Concur Government Edition (CGE) Continued:

11

• The Add Trip feature on the General Tab – Trip Information tab should NOT be used.

• Use the Exceptions tab to select Govt Owned Vehicle Available when mode of travel is GOV. Selecting GOV on the Exceptions tab ensure the mode of travel is included on the PDF of the travel document.

• Use the Exceptions tab to also include explanations/justifications for scenarios such as: justifications for upgraded rental cars, justifications for overlodging, and ad-hoc ‘other’ scenarios which require/provide explanation.

Concur Government Edition (CGE) Continued:

12

• Overlodging – (also known as excessive lodging) must be approved on the TA, and the TA/TV must include a memo of explanation/justification, which must be approved by the Associate Deputy Director (ADD) or equivalent. When, and only when, overlodging is approved, edit the lodging expense in CGE to match the receipt, and click Show Per Diem Conditions, and select ‘Actual Lodging.’ If Actual Lodging is not selected, the system will automatically reduce the traveler’s M&IE by the overlodged amount.

Concur Government Edition (CGE) Continued:

13

• Do NOT delete Per Diem related expenses (lodging and M&IE). Instead: • Zero out the lodging expense when lodging is not

incurred/claimed To zero out lodging, edit the lodging expense, enter 0 in the

cost field, and click save• Zero out M&IE when not claimed or to reduce M&IE To zero out M&IE, enter a 0 in the cost field, or, to reduce

M&IE, enter the amount the traveler should receive in the cost field – then, click the Show Per Diem Conditions hyperlink, select ‘Actual Meals,’ and click save. Note: the Leave and Override selections do not work correctly – do not use. Meals Provided works sometimes, though the cost field might also need to be manually edited to the amount the traveler should receive. If you see ‘M&IE Adjustment’ – this indicates the M&IE expense was edited incorrectly and the reimbursement amount might not be correct. Contact the DOI Concur Help Desk for assistance if necessary.

Concur Government Edition (CGE) Continued:

14

• When an M&IE Adjustment or Lodging Adjustment displays on the Expenses & receipts tab in the TA/TV, contact the DOI Concur Help Desk for assistance.

DO NOT SIGN the voucher when M&IE Adjustment or Lodging Adjustment exists on the document! The ‘adjustment’ indicates the expense amount might be incorrect, and as a result, the traveler might not receive the correct reimbursement.

Concur Government Edition (CGE) Continued:

15

• Always check the Totals tab of the voucher before signing, to ensure the reimbursement amount is correct. If incorrect, DO NOT SIGN the voucher. Contact the DOI Concur Help Desk for assistance. • Once a voucher has been approved and/or paid, if you think you need to amend the voucher, always contact the DOI Concur Help Desk first for assistance, prior to creating the voucher amendment. Voucher amendments are tricky. Travel vouchers should only be amended to add a reimbursable expense which was inadvertently left off of the original or to change the payment method on an expense from GOVCC to Reimbursable (not vice versa). Travel vouchers should not be amended to change anything that was previously submitted, and should not be amended to attach additional documentation. Email the DOI Concur Help Desk if additional documentation must be attached.

on this same location/assignment? (are you keeping a spreadsheet of who is where and for how long?)

Has or will this become taxable?Has the employee had a 7 consecutive month

break from this location?
