Per diem is a daily allowance that your organization reimburses you for days when you have worked away from the office.
The per diem allowance is allocated to you according to your company's policy. You can create per diem expenses from your Fyle web app.
In order to create per diem expenses on the mobile app, you can follow the steps mentioned below:
Click on the little drop-down arrow next to the Add Expense button next to the Tasks tab on your spender Dashboard. Click on Add Per Diem.
2. You will be redirected to a new Per Diem expense form. Fill in the required expense fields.
Mandatory fields include:
Per Diem Rate: Rates of daily allowance that you can claim from your company. Click on the rate of daily allowance that you wish to avail (applicable if you have multiple per-diem allowances allocated to you. Otherwise, you will see a default per-diem allowance pre-populated).
From and To Dates: Select the dates you worked away from your office. Once the days are selected, the system will capture the number of days automatically in under No. of Days.
The amount is automatically calculated based on the per diem allowance:
(Expense Amount = Per Diem Rate (or) Per Day Allowance x No of Days)
