Reconcile TA

My supervisor approved my TA – why hasn’t it been approved? I found a lower fare, can I go ahead and purchase it? Why does my name have to match my government issued ID? BYU-I Travel vs. the Travel Office – when to use which option? Can I pick up my supervisor’s cash advance? What if I do not have all my receipts for reconciliation? Who do I contact regarding guest travel?
