The Per Diem Expenses tab is used in both the Travel Authorization and Travel Reimbursement documents. It is called Estimated Per Diem Expenses in the Travel Authorization, but the layout is the same. It allows you to calculate allowable expenses for meals, incidentals, lodging, and mileage when per diem or set rates are used for trip expenses. Use of this tab is optional in both documents.
The
Per Diem
Expenses tab appears after you specify a destination in the
Trip Information
Section of the Trip Overview
tab. When the tab is first displayed and per diem is allowed for the
selected Trip Type, the Create Per Diem
Table button displays. To create a per diem table showing
allowable expenses for each day of the trip, click the button. If the Trip Type
does not allow Per Diem, message "Per Diem entry is not allowed for this Trip
Type” displays instead of the button.
For
detailed information about displaying and working with the per diem table for a
trip, see Working in the Per Diem
Tab.
This tab contains two subsections, Per Diem Expenses and Grand Totals.
