  • If any approver decides to deny a trip or wants more information (labeled ‘Needs Work’) prior to approving, they have that option and will be required to enter comments if either of those options are selected.  The trip coordinator will receive an email with whatever action the approver has taken. 
  • Once the trip has been approved, the trip coordinator can open the STATUS page on the trip and when ready to open the trip for participants, can activate the trip.

  • The trip coordinator can also close the trip to participants at any time on the STATUS page of the trip.

Personal info defaults in from Banner if the user logged in is a current UNW student or employee.  If they are not a current student or employee, the trip coordinator will need to register the person for the trip. They must have an ID in Banner since that is where we store birthdate, gender, email, phone, and emergency contact info.  The trip coordinator can submit a ticket to IT if they need a Banner ID created.
