Case Study: Idaho State University achieves faster, more compliant expense processing with Ellucian Travel and Expense

Idaho State University saves time and increases compliance with Ellucian Travel and Expense powered by Chrome River

Idaho State University, a 4‑year public institution with 3,000–5,000 students, handles roughly 1,500–2,000 travelers and 8,000–9,000 travel reimbursement reports annually. To simplify and improve its paper-based, signature-heavy expense workflows and reduce time spent tracking down documents, the university adopted Ellucian Travel and Expense powered by Chrome River.

Ellucian implemented a rapid deployment of Travel and Expense with features like email approvals, a mobile e‑wallet for receipt capture, and automated compliance rules. The result: Idaho State University reports decreased processing time, better document visibility for travelers, fewer corrections between travelers and the travel office, and overall improved compliance across expense processes.
