GSA establishes the rates that federal agencies use to reimburse their employees for lodging and meals and incidental expenses incurred while on official travel within the continental United States (CONUS). A standard rate applies to most of CONUS. Individual rates apply to about 300 non-standard areas (NSAs). Most NSAs are a key city/primary destination and the surrounding county. Rates for the coming federal government fiscal year are typically announced in mid-August. Search the rates below or refer to the flat files, API, or trip calculator.
Per OMB Circular A-123, federal travelers "...must provide a tax exemption certificate to lodging vendors, when applicable, to exclude state and local taxes from their hotel bills." GSA's SmartPay team maintains the most current state tax information, including any applicable forms.
Traveler reimbursement is based on the location of the work activities and not the accommodations, unless lodging is not available at the work activity, then the agency may authorize the rate where lodging is obtained.
Unless otherwise specified, the per diem locality is defined as "all locations within, or entirely surrounded by, the corporate limits of the key city, including independent entities located within those boundaries."
Per diem localities with county definitions shall include"all locations within, or entirely surrounded by, the corporate limits of the key city as well as the boundaries of the listed counties, including independent entities located within the boundaries of the key city and the listed counties (unless otherwise listed separately)."
When a military installation or Government - related facility(whether or not specifically named) is located partially within more than one city or county boundary, the applicable per diem rate for the entire installation or facility is the higher of the rates which apply to the cities and / or counties, even though part(s) of such activities may be located outside the defined per diem locality.
A colleague in the same firm and same department is using the same concur expense mobile app as me but in "his version" when logging in the per diem and travel allowance automatically allocates the expenses. This is of course if he have made the expenses beforehand and logs in after the dates of the expenses. The thing is, on the Mobile app I have to go in on each date with per diem to allocate manual.
I understand that in the new version of Concur Request, it is possible for approved travel request to automatically generate an expense report. As per the documentation, below are the conditions that must be met for the feature to behave as expected:
Based on your comment that this works for your colleague, it seems that the feature is enabled for your company. Since this does not seem to work for you, I would suggest that you raise a case with your internal support team/ Concur administrator. They can look into the details of your requests and advise why the auto-creation is not working for you. Hope this helps.
@Rasmus_GEA it is really difficult to answer this question as we don't know what your colleague is doing as compared to what you are doing. Is your colleague signing in on the web version and attaching the itinerary to their expense report there? Is your colleague only using the mobile app? Are you only using the mobile app? There are a lot of questions that would need to be answered.
The only way per diems are created is by creating a new expense report and selecting that travel allowances need to be reported. Then you would assign an itinerary to the report. This will then break out the per diems.
As i write in the beginning we are using mobile app, same version, and are doing the exact same routine. So we make a travel plan with per diem one month ahead fx and then if he logs onto the mobile app it will allocate the per diem up until the date when he logs in.
@Rasmus_GEA So I'm clear on what is happening...when you create your travel plan with per diems, you are not seeing the daily allowances on your expense claim when you view the claim in the mobile app, but your colleague is able to see all the daily allowances on their expense claim in the mobile app? Is that correct?
My company uses a per diem for certain travel expenses. We have it as an expense account, with an audit validation rule. We changed our daily rates, and I updated the amount in the audit rule and saved it. However, when submitting an expense it does not recognize the updated rate. What did I miss?
That's what it seems like. There are two rules, called "Meals - Per Diem Full" and "Meals - Per Diem Partial." When I updated it I did not change anything other than update amount to 59. The rule still works - anything under the old limit is OK, it's just not recognizing the new limit. I'm not sure what I missed.
@jkotowski maybe try changing the first condition to AmountDaily Total but not with the multiple expense types. There should be two AmountDaily Total options in your condition selector. Choose the one without (multiple expense types). Then in the second condition, change "In" to "=". Since you are only looking at the Meals - Per Diem Full Day expense type only. Give this a try and see if it works.
I'm taking a guess here based on your conditions. I think because you have it set up to look at multiple expense types, but then only selected one in your condition, it might be causing the rule not to fire correctly.
Meal Allowances - In-State
For overnight travel within the State of Missouri, meals will be reimbursed on a per diem basis of $54.00 per day regardless of destination. This dollar amount is based on the Governmental Services Administration's "Standard CONUS Rate". To learn more about the Standard CONUS Rate, click HERE.
Foreign Meal Allowance
For travel outside the fifty United States and the District of Columbia, reimbursement is allowed at a per diem rate prescribed by the U.S. Department of Defense "Per Diem, Travel and Transportation Allowance Committee." This information can be accessed online at: *
The meals and incidental expense (M&IE) breakdowns in the tables below are provided should federal travelers need to deduct meals furnished by the government or included in a registration fee from their M&IE allowance consistent with Federal Travel Regulation 301-11.18. Meals provided by a common carrier or a complimentary meal provided by a hotel/motel do not affect per diem (301-11.17).
The Office of Animal Resources (OAR) is required to recover the costs associated with the procurement, care and support of research animals. Investigators are billed on a monthly basis for those expenses.* Bills are available at the end of each month or shortly thereafter. OAR will charge the MoCode that was provided on the original animal order form. Authorization covers animal purchase, animal housing per diem and associated service charges. The MoCode provided will be charged for all costs unless a change is authorized in writing.
*Billing typically occurs on the last Friday of every month. MoCode changes should be submitted at least five business days prior to the billing period end. At the beginning of each fiscal year, or upon providing a new MoCode for animal purchases or housing per diem, fiscal officers should make certain that budget is established for such expenses. Investigators should review OAR invoices monthly for accuracy. Billing corrections will not be made beyond 60 days past the billing end date and will not cross fiscal years.

Per Diem positions are used to complement career and limited positions when necessary to maintain staffing levels for temporary and emergency periods, as determined by the Organization Head or designee. Refer to UC-PPSM 3 (Types of Appointment) and UC-PPSM 24 (Per Diem Positions), Section A.
Authority to establish per diem positions is delegated to the Organization Head or designee. Authorized individuals are responsible for insuring that organizational entities under their jurisdiction using per diem appointments do so in accordance with the policies and provisions specified in UC-PPSM 24 (Per Diem Positions).
Per Diem employees are not subject to the UC Personnel Policies for Staff Members except as noted in UC-PPSM 24 (Per Diem Positions), Section E, regardless of the duration and percentage of time worked. Although some method of recording performance evaluation information may be required for compliance with external agencies, a formal performance appraisal is not otherwise appropriate. Per diem employees work on an as-needed basis and therefore should not be given any assurances of continued employment, nor future scheduling guarantees based upon satisfactory performance.
"By Agreement" rates of pay will be established by CHR for all per diem classes, will be based upon the pay ranges of the parallel classes, and will be incorporated into the Non-Academic Title and Pay Plan.
