Submit per diems through the Expense App
- 3 min.
Expense users can submit per diems through the Expense App.
To submit a per diem, select New Per Diem.
Fill in Departure Date Time and Return Date Time for the period you are entitled to per diem reimbursement. The Expense App will automatically calculate how many days the trip covers and create the corresponding Days. Next, you can define which allowances you are entitled to each separate day. To do this, select the blue ribbon with Days written in it.
To set the allowances for all days simultaneously, select the pen icon. To set the allowances for each individual day, simply select the day for which you want to set allowances.
By default, the allowances will either all be enabled or disabled, depending on how you've configured the Per Diem FastTab on the Expense Management Setup page.
Note
Accommodation allowances can't be added to the first day of a per diem.
Once you have set all allowances, select Apply, and repeat the process for each day that you need to edit.
Go back to the Per Diem page, add a description, and swipe the Submit slider once you've finished. Alternatively, you can save the per diem by selecting the Save action and then submit it later.
Note
The amount field will by default start with Pending Calculation and will be calculated automatically the next time that the synchronization action is run from Business Central.
