====== Conference Registrations =====


  - Ask your advisor, which PI will pay for your conference registration. (important: your adviser is not always the PI of the fund). Save this information for Step 4. 
  - Go to your conference registration website page, fill in the registration (disregard payment information) and print or save as PDF. Keep note of any user names/password used to register. 
  - Go to http://erso.berkeley.edu, and click on Intranet (located at the top of the blue menu). 
  - Click Services, and click on the PI whose fund will pay for your conference registration. 
  - Click the travel reimbursement box (the box should say travel reimbursements and payments, but at this time only says travel reimbursement) 
  - Select the Vendor (a.k.a. payee name) for the conference. If the vendor is not on the vendor list, then go to step 7 
  - In the trip purpose text box, list which project will pay for your conference, your name & contact information, conference name, vendor name (if not listed in step 5), conference website URL, username/passwords, and registration due dates. \\ \\ {{ :admin:conf_reg.png?nolink |}} \\ \\
  - Put the total due for the conference registration in the Amount Requested Box. When finished, click on Submit Request. 
  - Upload the PDF files you saved when filling out your registration. (These files will serve as references when they make the payments).
