Why must the employee’s manager approve the Travel Card application and what is the manager’s responsibility?
The manager signature indicates that the employee requires the card to conduct official UCSD business. The manager is required to ensure the employee’s account remains current and if notified by the UCSD Travel Card Team the manager must dedicate immediate resources to resolve any past due balance. Past due accounts affect the entire UC Card Program and failure to assist with this process could impact all Travel Cards in the department.
