If you erroneously made a personal charge on your Corporate Card, mark that transaction as “personal” when filling out your e-Expense report (charge to a deptID and not a grant). The amount will be deducted from your out of pocket reimbursement. See below to confirm whether you owe the university.

If in the “Total Due Traveler” field you see a negative number, this value represents money owed to Tufts.
What to do when you owe Tufts?
If you owe money on an e-Expense report, a credit voucher will be created within TSS Accounts Payable. To pay Tufts back, you have two options:
If you expect to receive another reimbursement (sufficient to cover the amount) within 60 days you can leave the credit as is and the amount owed will be deducted from the next reimbursement.
If you will not be getting a reimbursement or wish to pay Tufts back now, send a check to Tufts Support Services/Attn: Travel/80 George Street/Medford. TSS will deposit the money into the DeptID and remove the credit from the system. Please make checks payable to “Trustees of Tufts College” and reference the report number.
If you owe the University money for something like personal expenses on a Travel or PCard but you also have a Cell Phone Reimbursement or submit for Business or Travel Reimbursements or are due payment for anything else, the amount you owe will be deducted from that reimbursement or any future travel/business expense reimbursements until the amount owed is current.
