Travel types specify the geographic scope an employee is requesting travel for. Oracle Travel Request Management ships with seeded values for travel type. The seeded values are:

- International
- Domestic
- Local

You can add additional travel types for regional offices, headquarters or other locality options to meet your organizations needs. You must update the Oracle TRM approval rule if you add new travel types and want them used in the processing of travel requests.

The International and Domestic travel types are hardcoded in the Oracle TRM approval rule for auto-approval of a travel request. Travel types that appear in the Oracle TRM approval rule are critical; modifying or deleting these values could mean modifications will be needed to the rule.

In this topic, you will modify travel type options.
