(New Module) Daily Allowances entry

The management of daily allowances can be simplified by treating them as a separate expense. These records can reflect any deductions or additions and ensure that the per diem matches the actual expenses. This method not only simplifies the accounting process, but also provides valuable insight into daily financial habits, contributing to a transparent budget management.

2. select the type of trip:
   a. For same day trip (8-24 hours), enter:
   i. Departure point;
   ii. Destination;
   iii. Return point;
   iv. Date of the journey;
   v. Total duration of the trip;
   b. In the case of a longer trip (more than 24 hours and over several calendar days)

   ii. Add stopovers by adding more journeys as needed.
   iii. You can add a transit journey if required by checking the "Transit" box. (A transit is a stopover or stopover during a journey.
   Example: The employee flies from Munich to New York. In the following case, London is a stopover and the employee does not work there).
   2 . Next, go to Deductions. Check all appropriate meal deductions or allowances for private overnight stays.
