Travel Allowance Reporting

[lperez-lopez]

Hi All,

Is it possible to download a Cognos report with current travel allowance configurations? I located the "Travel Allowance Configuration" (naming of the allowance), the Rate Location Country and Rate Location data fields, but cannot locate the rate. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi @lperez-lopez

Good question, thank you for posting!

Unfortunately, it’s not possible to use Intelligence to capture the current travel allowance configuration. Intelligence captures the travel allowance transactional data, meaning it only includes travel allowance data tied to a traveler’s expense report. As travel allowance rates frequently change, the Intelligence travel allowance data may not be what is currently configured but what was configured at the time the expense report was created.

Hope this helps!

Hello,

Is there a way to bring data from expense reports Details -> Expenses and Adjustments - > Travel Allowance Itinerary?

Best,

Madalina

@BOARTA_MADALINA Travel Allowance data can be seen using Cognos reporting. If you haven't used Cognos reporting, then it would a bit difficult to explain. Have you used Cognos reporting before?

If you have used Cognos reporting, then when you start a new report, use the Search field and type in Travel Allowance. It will bring up all the areas within Cognos that has Travel Allowance data and you will see all the data items you can use for building a report.
