Instructions to Create a Travel Request Form

Info

Below you will find a set of written Instructions that will guide you in creating a Travel Request Page. You may want to print or copy these instructions to a notepad application or open in a new window/tab so that you can refer to them as you complete the steps.

Step 1: Enter your RALO's abbreviation in the space below, then hit the <Enter> key on your keyboard. This step will create new blank Travel Request Form that you will subsequently complete.

Step 2: Click <Save> at the bottom of the next page immediately, but DO NOT attempt to enter any information into the fields at this time. 

Step 3: Now that your new page has been created, click <Edit Contents> on the top of menu bar (please DO NOT click <Edit>), then answer each of the questions in the blank column to the far right. 

  • The text fields open a window which will auto-expand and auto-wrap as you type content. You also have editing features (see top menu) available such as bold, italics, bullets, and more.
  • Note that some fields contain menu selections which will pop-up once you click anywhere in the cell. 
  • You won't be able to add an image during this first step; however, you may return subsequently and follow the instructions at the bottom of this page to upload and display a picture of yourself (optional).

Step 4: When you are finished, remember to <Save> the page (see bottom of the screen).

Tip

Additional Tips:

  • How to Edit Later: Once the page is created, you may return at any time to edit the content. If you need to amend any information subsequently, you simply click on your individual page link (alphabetized by name) and then click on the top menu bar <Edit Contents>. Don’t forget to save any changes you make. All prior versions are automatically archived.
  • How to Link to This Page: Both standard and tiny links (URL) are available to your New SOI page. The tiny link is useful because it will always point to the correct location (permalink) even if the page is subsequently moved within the Wiki. To access the tiny link, go to the Tools menu and click "Link to this page..." or, simply, press the keyboard shortcut letter "k" to show both standard and tiny URLs, either of which may be copied and pasted to another Wiki or website.
