Submit per diems via the Expense App

  • 3 min.

Expense users can submit per diem claims through the Expense Mobile App. Per diem allowances grant you set amounts for each day of your business trip, depending on the parts that you claim, such as meals, travel or accommodation.

To submit a per diem, select New Per Diem.

Expense Mobile App_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.

Expense Mobile App_Per Diem Days

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.

Expense Mobile App per diem Set allowances for days

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.

Expense Mobile App allowance list selection

After you have set all allowances, select Apply to set these configurations for each day. You can then open a specific day to make individual adjustments as needed.

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.
