Understanding Per Diem Claims
In ITILITE, each per diem expense (also known as a claim) is designed to be associated with a single destination or location. When you create a per diem expense, the system uses this specific location, along with the duration of your stay, to calculate the fixed allowance based on your company's policy.
The "Destination" field in the expense claim form is configured to accept only one location entry. This ensures that the per diem rate is accurately applied according to the specific rules for that single destination.
Handling Multiple Destinations
If your trip includes multiple destinations, especially if each location has different per diem rates or rules, you cannot combine them into a single per diem claim.
Instead, you should create a separate per diem expense for each destination you visited. Each of these individual expenses will specify its own location and the dates you were there. Once created, you can then attach all these separate per diem expenses to the same overall expense report for your entire trip. This method ensures that each destination's per diem is calculated correctly while keeping all trip-related expenses organized in one report.
