Per Diem Calculations for Single Day and Multiple Days

Former Member

Hi Gurus

I have just now confronted a weird calculation of Per Diems.

I have configured Per Diems for 1 Day say $50 per Day, irrespective of the no.of hours.

When I create a trip for a single day, the system is calculating $50 Per DIem for one day.

Whereas, when I create a trip for 3 days, the system is calculating only for Two days i.e, $50x2=$100 and not $150 as expected, meaning the lfirst and seond day gets calculated and the last day is not getting calculated

Please let me know where I am missing the little configuration in order to let the system calculate for multiple days correctly ?

This is an urgent requirement please.....Need help.

Thank you

Hi,

There could have been many reasons.

For example V_T702N_D , check Valuation of trip duration (domestic trips or international trip) or vision of Trip Duration

Hi Umer

I have deleted and re-entered all the entries. Meals PDM is $50 per day.

I have defaulted the Start time as : 01:00 and End Time as 24:00.

The Meals PDM amount is calculating correctly for one day and multiple days, but the new issue is :

In the Review Summary screen, it is displayed as :

Total Meals Per Diem = $50

Total individual Receipts = $50-

Amount Reimbursed = 0

Amount Paid out = 0

So, no amount is paid as Meals PDM. Why ? What went wrong in configuration ? Please help.

Hi Umer,

Can you please help me in resolving this puzzle.

1. Trip abroad

2. Deductions

The System only deduct breakfast for 29.09.2014 and pay lunch and dinner

I have added additional destination in US on 10.10.2014, behaving same like 29.09.2014 (only deducting breakfast)

and on last date 17.10.2014, not pay anything although deductions are off.

Configuration:

Trip Abroad is set Calender Days

Valuation is 4

No day scaling is selected

V_T702N_D

Hi Umer

I was glad that I changed settings in Table : V_T702N_D to 24 Calendar interval and it worked fine.

The calculations for 1 day, 2 days and 3 days worked fine. After a couple of hours, when I tested

the Meals PDM, it is again behaving weird like before i.e, calculating only for 2 days when I enter 3 day travel.

What must have broken in the configuration again ? Not able to understand.

The system should calculate $52 per whole day. What are the configuration points to maintain.

Please guide me.

Thank you

Hi,

As I told you earlier that there could be serval options which needs to be checked again.

For example:

a) V_T702N_D

b) Your per diem table

I think if you have checked 24 hours in V_T702N_D , then please verify the trip duration on PR05

If it was working earlier then below might help you...

For Example:

Start date/time 23-July-2011 Time 00:00

End date/time 25-July-2011 Time 00:00

Here above number of days are three (23,24,25) but calculation for meals shall be done for two days, because for three days per diem calculation it shall be 48:01 Hours above is 48 Hours..

Please try in PR05 and check the results.

Start date/time 23-July-2011 Time 00:00

End date/time 25-July-2011 Time 00:01

So please check again and let know in case of problem..

Oops.....forgot to mention a point in my above question.

The Per Diem Calculation is for Meals.....Meals Per Diem.
