Three Cheers! An Online Overnight Travel/PD Form is Here!

Beginning today the Agency is implementing a new online system to allow staff to request overnight travel and professional development. THIS IS EXCITING!! 

You can access the new travel/PD request system though a link on the Expense Online tab of the Employee Dashboard

A Help document (Log into the Employee Dashboard before you click this link.) provides complete instructions on how to access and use the various functions of the system. This link is also available on the Help tab on the Employee Dashboard and in the upper right corner of the home page in the new travel/PD request system. A highlight of the new system is a status bar function that allows you to find out the status of your request and claim. 

This online system replaces the Overnight Travel/Professional Development PDF form that has been used for the past several years. If you have already submitted an overnight travel or professional development request using the PDF form, you do not need to resubmit the request using the new system. The PDF form will follow the old process until payment is made. 

We hope you find this new system to be user-friendly and helpful in reducing the paper and email trails associated with agency travel! 

If you have any questions about this new system, contact Rod Howell, Information Systems Manager, at rhowell@heartlandaea.org at ext. 14599.
