ITINERARIES AND INVOICES
 Itineraries are sent from Concur when a reservation is held,
submitted for purchase (effective Sep 5) or cancelled. The itinerary
shows an estimated trip cost and the calendar sync icons.
 Invoices are sent from Mylan Travel when the purchase request is
completed. The invoice displays the purchase price of the airline
ticket and any associated agency costs. Invoices are used for
expense reporting.

supervisor as well as all the email addresses listed in the traveler’s
profile.

BOOKING ERRORS
It is vitally important that booking errors are reported immediately along
with screen shots of the error and action before the error (i.e. I was
booking a flight from PIT to PHL). The screen shot below is believed to
be an internal issue being investigated by the Mylan IT team.

Frequently asked questions
PROFILE NAME CHANGES
 The name on your Concur travel profile must align with the
government issued photo ID presented at the airport and the name
on your frequent traveler accounts. Since your profile is created and
maintained from an HR data feed loaded into Concur twice monthly,
the data must also align with HR NuView. To request assistance with
name changes, send an email to corporate.travel@mylan.com.
TELEPHONE RESERVATIONS IN CONCUR
