Per Diem

Use the Per Diems feature to set up daily travel allowances for employees. Per Diems are not added to the employee's income and not taxed against the employee.

You set up Per Diems through Greentree > System > eTimesheets > Setup > Per Diems.

You must specify the Per Diem Level for the eTimesheets Employee through eTimesheets Employee Configuration > Main tab > Expense Sheet Settings. eTimesheets uses this level to apply the correct Daily Travel Allowance Rates to eExpenses.

Per Diem eModule Control settings

The Use Per Diem option on the Module Control > eTimesheets > Per Diem tab determines if Per Diems is active for eTimesheets. You must select this option to use the eTimesheets Per Diem function.

Once turned on, eTimesheets Expenses contains a Per Diem button which you use to enter an Expense line to claim Daily Travel Allowances. The Rate is determined by the date of you travel and Destination.

The Rate's Audit number displays and captured with the expense line to keep track of where the Rates come from. You are not allowed to edit rates through eTimesheets once the Per Diem Expense line is saved. You can create new lines by drilling down on an existing line and clicking the Copy Line button.
