Abstract
The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) proposes to modify a system of records titled, "USAID-19, Travel and Transportation Records," last published on December 30, 2014. USAID is modifying its SORN category of records as Social Security Numbers are no longer collected. This system supports End-to-End Travel (E2E) Solutions, which is an end-to-end web-based travel and expense management tool for paperless travel authorization/voucher routing, calculation of per diem, obligation of funds, receipts imaging, and voucher disbursements in accordance with the Federal Travel Regulation (FTR) and Agency policies in the Automated Directive System (ADS). The E2E system is used to create and track travel authorizations, travel vouchers and reimbursements, book on-line travel reservations, obtain electronic approvals, and create and submit expense reports for senior- level Agency officials. The information collected from individuals facilitates official Agency travel, such as issuing travel tickets, approving hotels and per diem rates, and confirming that travel is official. The personally identifiable information (PII) data elements are collected and input into the E2E system, Integrated Logistics Management System (ILMS), and Phoenix Financial Management System in support of these USAID business functions relating to USAID personnel travel.

AGENCY: Agency for International for Development (USAID).
ACTION: Notice of modified privacy act system of records.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The United States Agency for International Development (USAID)
proposes to modify a system of records titled, ``USAID-19, Travel and
Transportation Records,'' last published on December 30, 2014. USAID is
modifying its SORN category of records as Social Security Numbers are
no longer collected. This system supports End-to-End Travel (E2E)
Solutions, which is an end-to-end web-based travel and expense
management tool for paperless travel authorization/voucher routing,
calculation of per diem, obligation of funds, receipts imaging, and
voucher disbursements in accordance with the Federal Travel Regulation
(FTR) and Agency policies in the Automated Directive System (ADS). The
E2E system is used to create and track travel authorizations, travel
vouchers and reimbursements, book on-line travel reservations, obtain
electronic approvals, and create and submit expense reports for senior-
level Agency officials. The information collected from individuals
facilitates official Agency travel, such as issuing travel tickets,
approving hotels and per diem rates, and confirming that travel is
official. The personally identifiable information (PII) data elements
are collected and input into the E2E system, Integrated Logistics
Management System (ILMS), and Phoenix Financial Management System in
support of these USAID business functions relating to USAID personnel
travel.
DATES: Submit comments on or before 13 January 2022. This modified
system of records will be effective 13 January 2022 upon publication.
The Routine Uses are effective at the close of the comment period.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: USAID is modifying its SORN as Social

expense reports for senior-level Agency officials. The information
collected from individuals facilitates official Agency travel, such as
issuing travel tickets, approving hotels and per diem rates, and

and input into the E2E system, Integrated Logistics Management System
(ILMS), and Phoenix Financial Management System in support of these
USAID business functions relating to USAID personnel travel.
