  4. Select a project and stage from the dropdown menus.

  5. Select an expense type

  6. Select a travel rate.

  7. Enter the number of units. e.g. 55 miles were travelled. The amount to be reimbursed will be calculated automatically based on the travel rate cost.

Tips!

  • Travel expense items are automatically set to be 'tax-free'. If the item includes taxes (like GST or VAT) please enter this using the cash expenses tab.

  • The value shown in travel expenses is the cost for the item. This is the amount you will be reimbursed for the expense. The item will be marked up / down within the project, based on the rate selected.
