All reimbursable expenses should be submitted and approved through the Mason Finance Gateway (MFG) prior to an employee’s final day of employment or prior to a student’s graduation and/or period of non-enrollment at Mason.
If requests were not submitted prior to separation then the former employee/student, or guests must submit the Vendor Maintenance Form located on the “Do Business with Mason” page to create, or reactivate their G# to a “non-employee” status in Banner and MFG. Students, guests, former employees/students seeking reimbursements must coordinate with their department to process any outstanding requests, on their behalf.
