description: How to create Per Diem expenses on mobile and web. | ||
--- | ||
# Overview | ||
|
||
What are Per Diems? Per diems, short for "per diem allowance" or "daily allowance," are fixed daily payments provided by your employer to cover expenses incurred during business or work-related travel. These allowances simplify expense tracking and reimbursement for meals, lodging, and incidental expenses during a trip. Per Diems can be masterfully tracked in Expensify! | ||
|
||
## How to create per diem expenses | ||
|
||
To add per diem expenses, you need three pieces of information: | ||
1. Where did you go? - Specify your travel destination. | ||
2. How long were you away? - Define the period you're claiming for. | ||
3. Which rate did you use? - Select the appropriate per diem rate (this is set by your employer). | ||
|
||
### Step 1: On either the web or mobile app, click New Expense and choose Per Diem | ||
|
||
### Step 2: Select your travel destination from the Destination dropdown | ||
If your trip involves multiple stops, create a separate Per Diem expense for each destination. Remember, the times are relative to your home city. | ||
|
||
### Step 3: Select your Start date, End date, Start time, and End time | ||
Expensify will automatically calculate the duration of your trip. We'll show you a breakdown of your days: the time between departure and midnight on the first day, the total days in between, and the time between midnight and your return time on the last day. | ||
|
||
### Step 4: Select a Subrate based on the trip duration from the dropdown list | ||
You can include meal deductions or overnight lodging costs if your jurisdiction permits. | ||
|
||
### Step 5: Enter any other required coding and click “Save” | ||
|
||
### Step 6: Submit for Approval | ||
Finally, submit your Per Diem expense for approval, and you'll be on your way to getting reimbursed! | ||

# FAQ | ||
|
||
## Can I edit my per diem expenses? | ||
Per Diems cannot be amended. To make changes, delete the expense and recreate it as needed. | ||
|
||
## What if my admin requires daily per diems? | ||
No problem! Create a separate Per Diem expense for each day of your trip. | ||
|
||
## I have questions about the amount I'm due | ||
Reach out to your internal Admin team, as they've configured the rates in your policy to meet specific requirements. | ||
|
||
## Can I add start and end times to per diems? | ||
Unfortunately, you cannot add start and end times to Per Diems in Expensify. | ||
By following these steps, you can efficiently create and manage your Per Diem expenses in Expensify, making the process of tracking and getting reimbursed hassle-free. |
