Impact as Reported: We identified a functional disruption impacting Travel Request submissions. This issue was affecting all Travel Request users in the APJ1 Data Center. When attempting to submit a newly created Travel Request, a blank page was presented after clicking "Create New Request", preventing the Travel Request details from loading. The Travel Request could not be submitted. When attempting to access a previously created Travel Request, the header was missing from the Request when the screen refreshed. The Travel Request could not be submitted. Additionally, we identified a functional degradation impacting the creation of a Travel Allowance within expense reports. This issue was also impacting all users in the APJ1 Data Center. When attempting to complete the Start or End Location in the Travel Allowance an error, "An error occurred when processing your request" occured. Clicking "OK" and completing the template multiple times may have resulted in successful Travel Allowance creations. Root cause: Travel Requests experienced an issue related to the interaction between the Expense and Travel services. The Incident Response Team determined that a software defect was introduced with an update to a core travel component. The update prevented information required for request processing from being passed correctly between services, Engineering reverted the update to restore services.

    We have identified a functional disruption impacting Travel Request submissions. This issue is affecting all Travel Request users in the APJ1 Data Center. When attempting to submit a previously created Travel Request from "Manage Requests", a blank page is presented after the page refreshes, preventing the Travel Request details from loading. When attempting to submit a newly created Travel Request, the blank screen is presented after selecting "Create New Request". In both scenarios, attempting to select "Submit Request" results in an error, and the Travel Request cannot be submitted. Additionally, we identified a functional degradation impacting the creation of a Travel Allowance within expense reports. This issue is also impacting all users in the APJ1 Data Center. When attempting to complete the Start or End Location in the Travel Allowance an error, "An error occurred when processing your request" occurs. Clicking "OK" and completing the template multiple times may result in successful Travel Allowance creations. Workaround: Unfortunately there is no way for you to workaround the issue impacting Travel Request submissions for previously created Requests. You may be able to workaround the issue impacting adding a Travel Allowance to an existing expense report by performing multiple attempts. The Incident Response Team (IRT) has gathered, and are currently performing a review of recent changes. In parallel, a review of internal error logs is underway. A potential root cause has been identified, and additional teams have been engaged to address and provide input with respect to the current theory. Our next scheduled update will be in one hour.
