Travel and Expense Policy: Current Practices and Controls

Agenda

Policy Benchmarking• The Basics

• Travel

• Its Personal

• Corporate Credit Cards

• Expense Reports

• Questions

QUESTIONS TO ASK

Does our Policy consider the ‘total cost of travel?

How can we better enforce credit card policies?

Does our Policy consider the ‘total cost of travel?

What about travel alternatives likeUber and Airbnb?

How do our receipt rules compare to others?

Does our Concur platform drive compliance to the Policy?

Any international areas we should consider?

How often should we review our Travel Policy?

What is missing from our Travel Policy?

Is our Policy TOO long?

Do we have the “right” expense types?

Do we have too many required fields?

Policy Benchmarking – The Basics

• Annual Review and Updating• Review team to include users, especially “road

warriors”• Balance cost savings versus reducing traveler

“friction” – make travel more pleasant, balanced• https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/what-road-warriors-

really-want-scott-gillespie

• Ease of Use• Easy to read, understandable and fair• Written from traveler’s perspective• “Right” for the culture

• Reflective of Concur – “Concurized”• Be consistent with expense “types”• Be consistent with names (Example: “E-receipts”,

“receipt images”, “credit card imports”)

Policy Benchmarking – The Basics

• Duty of Care• The organization’s

responsibility to keep business travelers safe while traveling

• Security issues and safety concerns

• Natural disasters, terrorist actions, car accidents, medical incidents

• Messaging pushed to employees – using Risk Messaging?

• Employee expectations while traveling

• Input: Travel, HR, Legal, Risk, Security, Procurement, Finance

• Mandatory / Optional Travel Booking Methods• If mandatory use of

authorized methods, what exceptions exist?

• If using TripLink, is that included in the policy?

Policy Benchmarking - Travel

• Booking Hotels with Deposits Required• Is this allowed?• If so, how tracked and monitored?

• Trip Cancellations and Unused Tickets• When? How? Through Concur? TMC?

• Travel and Booking Alternatives• Airbnb, Uber, Lyft, Kayak, etc. (risks:

regulatory, tax, legal, insurance, safety, security, service, itinerary integration)

• International Information • Air, car, hotel, meal differences• Car configurations• VAT reclaim requirements, where

applicable – App Center partner?

• Tips and gratuities• Passports, visas, immunizations,

etc. – CIBT, Travisa

Policy Benchmarking – Travel

• Clarify Reimbursement of Ancillary Travel-Related Fees• Airline: Change Fees, Baggage Fees, Seat

Upgrades, Boarding Priority, In-Flight Internet, etc. –use Airline Fee expense type

• Rental Car: GPS Devices, Pre-Paid Fuel, Insurance, Roadside Assistance, Pre-Paid Toll Devices

• Hotel: Health Club Fees, Business Center, Laundry

• Reimbursement of TSA “membership” fees? (Pre-Check, Global Entry, Clear)

• Oversold Airline Situations / Seat Relinquishment

• Use of Preferred Vendors (Lowest Cost vs. Corporate Rates)

• Airfare - Advanced Purchase Expectations

Policy Benchmarking – Travel

• Use of Vehicles for Business• When should I rent a car vs. drive

my car?• Mileage rates and calculation of

mileage• Expenses related to Company car

usage (mileage calculator required?)

• Are you using any mileage apps? • Insurance requirements• Accidents / Thefts• Mobile device usage during

operation of vehicles

• Meals• Define and clarify: ‘Personal

Meal’, ‘Travel Meal’, ‘Business Meal’, ‘Entertainment Meal’, etc.

• Allowable daily limits? Per Diem Meals?

• Meals on travel days?

• Alcohol Consumption• Business meals• Entertainment• Travel• Company-sponsored events

Policy Benchmarking – It’s Personal

• Pay policy for Non-Exempt employees on travel status

• Travel-related medical accommodations for certain employees (requiring exception to Policy)

• Excess baggage• Larger rental car

• Accidents / Injuries / Illnesses / Thefts while on travel status

• Combining business with personal/spouse/partner travel

• Child care? Pet care? Elderly care?

• Religious considerations

Policy Benchmarking – Expense Reports

• Receipts• Corporate credit card vs

cash/personal credit card (out-of-pocket)

• VAT receipt requirements by territory, where applicable –hardcopy vs electronic

• Detail receipt requirements –which expenses?

• Using the Missing Receipt Affidavit?

• Expense Report submission and approval guidelines / requirements

• Frequency of expense reports? Coincide with CC billing periods?

• Approval timelines – what is the workflow for non-approval?

• Reimbursement expectations

Policy Benchmarking – Cards

• Corporate Credit Cards• Included in Travel Policy or separate policy?• Auto-assignment of cards in Concur

• What is in “Policy”?• Who can request • How do employees apply – eliminate

paper processes• Employees sign off that the policy has

been received• Usage of the card (include personal

and how to handle)• How to account for charges• Receipt rules/exemptions• How is payment made (and who pays

for late fees)• Security of the card• When a card is lost/stolen• Separation of employment and card

surrender

Policy Takeaways

• Make sure your Policy fits your culture and is “right” for your organization

• Implement sound and reasonable controls but do not increase ‘traveler friction’ and consider the ‘total cost of travel’

• Ensure your Policy addresses the organization’s Duty of Care and reflects current travel trends and overall environment

• Review and update your Policy (and Concur site) at least annually
