New multi-country daily allowance and selecting the country of departure
This feature is currently only available for companies based in Finland.
OBS! All times (steps 3-4, 7, 9) in the form must always be filled in according to the Finnish time zone UTC+3 (summer)/UTC+2 (winter).
To help you understand the logic of the form, it is good to understand that all the gaps between times are calculated automatically. This means that the form should be filled out according to the logic: start time-end time-end time-end time (etc.), where the end time in the middle of the chain represents both a start and end time simultaneously (you finish the previous step and start the next step at the same point in time).
Open the per diem form and fill in the following fields like this:
Description: write purpose of the trip, visited countries (and cities).
Country (1): select the country where the first day of travel ends.
Start time: select the time you left home for the trip.
End time: select the time you arrive (e.g. airplane arrival time) in country you choose in step 6.
Adding more countries of destination
5. Click "Add another country" button.
6. Country: select the next country
7. End time: write the time you arrive in next country (e.g. time your airplane arrived in country after country in nr. 6).
Always fill in the return time as the arrival time to the next country, for example, the arrival time of the plane/boat to the next country (step 4 and 7), see the example below.
Repeat steps 5–7 for all countries of destination.
Ending the trip
8. Country: select the country you visited last before returning to Finland.
9. End time: select the end time of the trip.

Other information:
You can only use Bezala's daily allowance form for multiple countries when the company is based in Finland.
You cannot create 2 different per diems for the same day & time.
You can add an attachment to the daily allowance form in the browser version of Bezala after you have saved the form.
Per diems can be automatically reported to Finnish incomes register or Swedish Skatteverket.
Would you like to group several events into one travel expense report? You can group expenses by using a tag with the @ symbol (Ex: @Gothenburg) in the description field. Grouping helps you and your manager understand the total expenses of the trip and facilitates approval.
Use the same tag in all expenses you want to combine. |
