Employee expense reimbursements

  • 1.  Employee expense reimbursements

    Posted an hour ago

    Good morning CFMA community,

    I am wondering how other companies handle employee expense reimbursements. 

    A bit of backstory... The company I work for has a company credit card, but there are restrictions depending on the job title/responsibilities. For example, office project managers/estimators are limited to just fuel purchases so they have to put everything else on their personal card and have it reimbursed. 

    • When you do a reimbursement, what is your process?
      • Do you have a program for tracking the expenses?
      • How it is reimbursed (weekly check, line item on payroll/direct deposit, etc)?
      • Who approves the reimbursement?
    • If you have a company credit card, do you have similar restrictions?

    I know a lot of these items can vary based on the company size/revenue/etc, but I'm just trying to get a general idea of how others are handling these costs and if they find value in their process or if they feel its efficient.

    Thank you and happy Wednesday!
