Setting up Taxable Rates for Per Diems

A company can choose to reimburse employees above the governmental tax-free rates by enabling taxable rates. This functionality will be unavailable if taxable rates are disabled.

To configure taxable rates:

  2. Navigate to the Per Diem FastTab, and enable Enable Taxable Rates.
  3. Use the Search icon, search for Per Diem Rates and select the related link.
  4. Double-click on a rate to open its details.
