GENTEXT/REMARKS/1. THE PURPOSE OF THIS MESSAGE IS TO PROVIDE CLARIFYING GUIDANCE REGARDING THE PURPOSE AND PROPER USAGE OF THE WAWF-MP PROGRAM AS IT PERTAINS TO TRAVEL PAYMENTS.
2. WAWF-MP IS DESIGNED AND USED TO ELECTRONICALLY PROCESS CONTRACT AND MISCELLANEOUS VENDOR PAYMENTS. WAWF-MP IS NOT DESIGNED FOR NOR DOES IT ENFORCE ANY OF THE REQUIRED TRAVEL RULES AND REGULATIONS TO SUPPORT THE PROPER PAYMENT OF TRAVEL ENTITLEMENTS TO INDIVIDUAL TRAVELERS. ADDITIONALY, SINCE IT DOES NOT INTERFACE WITH ANY OF THE STANDARD TRAVEL SETTLEMENT SYSTEMS SUCH AS DTS OR WINIATS, NOR THE DOCUMENT RETENTION SYSTEM EDA, IT PRECLUDES THE PROPER REPORTING OF PAY RELATED TRANSACTIONS INCIDENT TO TRAVEL AND OPENS THE DOOR TO POTENTIAL MISPAYMENTS AND DUPLICATE TRAVEL PAYMENTS. FINALLY WAWF DOES NOT ENFORCE NOR ALLOW FOR MANDATORY SPLIT DISBURSEMENT FOR THE GTCC.
3. ACCORDINGLY WAWF-MP IS NOT AUTHORIZED TO REIMBURSE INDIVIDUAL ACTIVE DUTY, RESERVE, OR DOD CIVILIAN MEMBER TRAVEL AND TRANSPORTATION ALLOWANCES. ALL ENTITLEMENTS ASSOCIATED WITH IDT/DRILLS, TO INCLUDE MEALS, LODGING OR RENTAL CARS ARE TRAVEL ENTITLEMENTS, WHETHER ORDERS ARE ISSUED OR NOT, AND WILL NOT BE REIMBURSED TO THE INDIVIDUAL TRAVELER VIA WAWF-MP. REIMBURSEMENT FOR INDIVIDUAL TRAVEL AND TRANSPORTATION WILL ONLY BE PROCESSED VIA DTS OR WINIATS AS APPROPRIATE. 
4. THIS MARADMIN REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL SUPERSEDED.
5. RELEASE AUTHORIZED BY SES A. WHITTEMORE, ASSISTANT DEPUTY COMMANDANT, PROGRAMS AND RESOURCES.//
