A company is configuring per diem rules in Dynamics 365 Finance as part of its expense management.
The company requires the per diem rate to be automatically reduced by different percentages when specific meals, such as breakfast or dinner, are provided each day to the employee during travel.
You need to set up the per diem rules.
Correct Answer:
C
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:
In Dynamics 365 Finance, when configuring per diem rules for expense management, the system supports reducing the per diem rate based on specific meals provided during travel (e.g., breakfast, lunch, dinner). This reduction is applied on a per day basis, not per trip.
Meal type per day configuration allows you to specify reduction percentages for each meal type (breakfast, lunch, dinner) for each day of travel.
This setup automatically adjusts the per diem amount when an employee receives one or more meals, preventing overpayment of per diem allowances.
Microsoft Docs - Per diem rules and meal reduction
'You can configure per diem rules to reduce the daily allowance based on the types of meals provided to the employee on each travel day.'
Why other options are incorrect:
A (Meal type per trip): Meal reductions are not applied on a per-trip basis but rather on each travel day to ensure daily accuracy.
B (Ignore allowance rate for meal reduction): Ignoring the allowance rate negates the requirement to reduce per diem automatically.
D (Number of meals per day with default values): While number of meals can be tracked, the reduction is specifically based on meal types with individual reduction percentages, not just the count of meals.
