## 7 Best Practices for Travel & Expense Management
|
|
91
92
|
|
|
92
93
|
### 1. Always Require Pre-Approval
|
|
94
|
+
|
|
93
95
|
No exceptions. Every trip should have an approved travel request before any money is spent. This single practice eliminates up to **40% of unnecessary travel costs** (Aberdeen Group).
|
|
94
96
|
|
|
95
97
|
### 2. Set Clear Travel Policies
|
|
98
|
+
|
|
96
99
|
Document your policies: What class of flight is acceptable? What's the per-diem for meals? Are weekend stays permitted? Communicate these in your travel request approval criteria.
|
|
97
100
|
|
|
98
101
|
### 3. Submit Expenses Within 7 Days
|
|
102
|
+
|
|
99
103
|
The longer the delay, the more receipts get lost. Set a clear expectation: expenses must be submitted within one week of return.
|
|
100
104
|
|
|
101
105
|
### 4. Photograph Receipts Immediately
|
|
106
|
+
|
|
102
107
|
Clockbook's expense form supports **receipt uploads**. Train employees to photograph receipts the moment they receive them and upload directly from their phone.
|
|
103
108
|
|
|
104
109
|
### 5. Track Billable vs. Non-Billable Travel
|
|
110
|
+
|
|
105
111
|
Using the **Billable to Customer** flag on travel requests, you can distinguish between client-billable and internal travel. This data is critical for project profitability analysis.
|
|
106
112
|
|
|
107
113
|
### 6. Review Travel Spend Monthly
|
|
114
|
+
|
|
108
115
|
Use the HR Dashboard to review total travel spend, identify frequent travelers, and spot cost optimization opportunities (e.g., advance booking discounts).
|
|
109
116
|
|
|
110
117
|
### 7. Integrate with Expense Management
|
|
118
|
+
|
|
111
119
|
Travel expenses in Clockbook tie directly into the Books module's **Expense Management** — giving finance a unified view of all company expenses in one system.
