The system validates the other expenses added by this employee to verify that they have not already claimed Incidentals for the same day. The Calculation Wizard then takes into account the ceiling amount based on whether this check box is clear or selected.

Select this option to allow users to override the expense report start/end dates when entering meal expenses. This check box is available only when the Wizard Type is Meals and only for per diem expense types.

Typically, the expense report start date counts as the first day of the trip, and the end date of the report counts as the last. On these days, per diem meal expenses are most often reimbursed at 75%, while all the days between are reimbursed at 100%.

In some cases, however, a single expense report may cover a series of trips taken over a period of weeks, with, for example, the employee returning home on a Friday and leaving again on the following Monday.

When this mix of travel/non-travel occurs within a single expense report period, meals on those days where travel starts or ends should be reimbursed at 75%, not 100% — even when those days fall between the expense report start/end dates.

For example, let's say an employee will take multiple trips between March 1 and March 31, but plans to submit just one expense report for the entire period. After the first trip, the employee returns home on Friday March 5 but leaves again on Monday, March 8.

In this case, even though March 8 is not the first day of the expense report, it is the first day of a trip, so the meals should be reimbursed at 75%. However, the meals will be reimbursed at 100% unless the employee is allowed to override the expense report start date.

In other cases, the employee may be eligible for a 100% meal reimbursement on the first or last day of a trip, which can also be handled by overriding the trip start/end date.

Use the Percent Adjustment field, located under Conference Lodging on the Input Options - Required Fields tab, to establish the percentage rate increase that is allowed over the normal per diem rate for conference-related lodging and meals.

For conferences, normally a 25% rate increase is allowed over the normal per diem rate. You can, however, also use this feature to support other company policies, so the allowable range is 0-100%.

The Percent Adjustment field is available only if you first select the following options on the  Expense Types > Basic Information screen:

• Lodging or Meals from the Wizard Type drop-down
• Per Diem under General Options
• Combine Meals/Lodging Allowance on the Input Options - Required Fields tab

Once the feature is enabled for a specific expense type, a Conference check box displays on the Lodging Expense Detail form of the expense report. It also displays on the Meal Expense Detail form for instances where lodging and meals are combined.

When completing an expense report, users can select Conference to indicate that a lodging stay is payable and billable at a percentage greater than the per diem rate, for example, 125%.

Deltek Expense then processes the expense at the normal government rate times whatever percentage is entered for the expense type in Percent Adjustment. It then takes the allowable rate and multiplies it by 1 + the percentage adjustment rate for the expense type for which it is configured, with upwards rounding.
