Dear Campus Community,
As part of UMBC's continued transition to SAP Concur, we are writing to share important upcoming dates regarding travel reimbursements.
Key Dates at a Glance
March 1, 2026 – Creation of reimbursement requests from approved pre-approvals in the legacy system ends.
March 1, 2026 and after – Reimbursements for pre-approvals in the legacy system must be submitted in SAP Concur.
Ongoing – Legacy system remains available for reference-only access to past travel and reimbursement data.
Effective March 1, 2026, the legacy travel system will no longer be available for creating reimbursement requests associated with pre-approvals in the legacy system. All reimbursements tied to these pre-approvals must be submitted through SAP Concur. As of March 1st, approximately 5 travelers may have trips which will require a reimbursement after returning from travel. These travelers should contact travel@umbc.edu upon their return for assistance with next steps.
The legacy system will remain up and running for reference-only purposes, allowing campus users to view historical travel and reimbursement records. No new reimbursement requests tied to approved pre-approvals may be created in the legacy system after March 1, 2026.
