What is Chrome River?
Effective December 2017, Humber will switch over to Chrome River for processing Purchase Card (P-card) transactions with Travel & Expense functionality to follow in 2018. Chrome River’s expense module is a fast, fluid, mobile web solution that is user-friendly and will be fully integrated with Humber’s Banner Finance.
Why now?
The current BMO Details Online P-card system will cease to exist on December 31, 2017 thus Humber decided to implement a comprehensive Travel and Expense solution which offers the latest functionality in travel and expense management.
When and how will Chrome River be deployed?
The entire set of functionalities will be released over two phases:
- Purchase Card (P-card) – by November 21, 2017 (Phase 1)
- Travel & Expense – by Spring 2018 (Phase 2)
