Common Questions

How long will my request take to process?

Processing time depends on your company's workflow. Contact your travel administrator if a request is pending longer than expected.

Can I see why my request was cancelled?

Check the request notes—admins often add explanation when cancelling requests.

What if the admin modified my request?

When you view a completed request, you'll see the approved version which may differ from your original submission if the admin made changes.

Can I resubmit a cancelled request?

You'll need to go through the booking flow again and submit a new request. The original cancelled request cannot be reopened.
