How does the integration with our travel tool work if an employee books a one way ticket?

This article is only relevant if you have an integration with your travel tool and WorkFlex for your international business trips

There are two ways to book a business trip in WorkFlex:

  1. Submitting a request on the platform: You can directly submit your travel request within the WorkFlex platform, providing all necessary trip details.

  2. Booking via your company’s travel booking tool: If your company uses a travel booking tool, the trip details will be automatically transferred to WorkFlex once the booking is made.

Key information for one-way business trips

Some travel tools do not require you to specify a return date when booking a trip. While this is fine for certain situations, it is crucial for compliance purposes that WorkFlex receives a return date to finalize all necessary compliance validations and assessments.

When a one-way trip is transferred from the travel booking tool without a return date, it will be submitted into the WorkFlex platform but will remain in a pending status until the return date is provided.

How to update your trip

If a trip has been submitted without a return date, you will see an alert message with the text “No return date”. Additionally, a button labeled “Update trip” will appear in the bottom-left corner of the screen.

  • Click on the pending request.

  • Click the “Update trip” button.

  • You will be prompted to enter your return date.

  • After filling in the return date, click Submit.

Once the return date is saved, WorkFlex will proceed with processing your trip, ensuring all compliance requirements are met.

Why is this important?

Adding the return date is essential to ensure that all business trips are covered by the appropriate compliance checks. Failure to complete this step could result in potential compliance risks for both the company and the employee.
