Submitting per diems
In Continia Expense Management, one of the essential steps for managing your per diems is to import them into your system effectively. When you submit a per diem, it is imported when the system synchronizes with Continia Online. Because Continia Online is a cloud solution, it connects both the Continia Expense App and the Continia Expense Portal to the Business Central client, enabling the data to synchronize across the three applications.
You can carry out synchronizations manually or schedule them to run automatically in job queues, see How to set up Expense Management Job Queues.
Use the Expense App
If you are on the go, you can submit per diems via the Expense Mobile App. The per diems then transfer through to Continia Online via the next synchronization to Business Central. Typically, the Expense App automatically synchronizes with Continia Online using job queues.
Use the Expense Portal
If you prefer, you can also submit per diems via the Expense Portal. The per diems then transfer through to Continia Online via the next synchronization to Business Central. Typically, the Expense Portal automatically synchronizes with Continia Online using job queues. To help decide which one to use, see The Expense App versus the Expense Portal.
Use the Business Central client
You can also submit per diems in Business Central if you use the setting Limit Document Visibility on the Continia User Setup card when you want to limit document visibility for a certain user to their own documents.
