CFO: Enhanced electronic employee reimbursement form

January 22, 2021

Banner: Important Notice. Achieving Excellence in Financial Management, Chief Financial Officer Organization.

The Main Point

The Employee Reimbursement Form, FS-6500-229 (eForm 229), has been enhanced. These enhancements effect all eForm 229 users and supervisors.

Supervisory Changes

Now supervisors will be able to approve each line item of the eForm 229, which means each transaction will automatically interface with FMMI.

Employee Changes

For employees claiming reimbursement, the updated eForm 229 will automatically validate their information with their employee vendor record in FMMI. The eForm will also automatically complete their supervisor’s information.

A change will occur for employees who submit volunteer reimbursement. Employees can now use the new eForm 229 to complete a Reimbursement Request Form on behalf of volunteers.

Volunteer Changes

Administrative staff will now be able to submit reimbursements on behalf of a volunteer via the new eForm 229 as a proxy signature.
