Use this topic to itemize expense items for nonhotel expenses. To itemize expense items for hotel expenses, see Itemize Hotel Expenses.
You can make specific configurations on expense items so that Workday automatically itemizes nonhotel charges on expense report lines. Examples: Airfare, car rental, and meals.
  1. Access the
    Create Expense Item
    or
    Edit Expense Item
    task.
  2. Map your expense item using the
    Itemization Mapping
    tab.
    Don't select these check boxes as they apply only to hotel expenses:
    • Hotel Expense
    • Automatically Populate Itemization for Level 3 Credit Card Transaction Data
    Option Description
    Expense Item

    Itemize Expense by
    We don't recommend selecting the
    Recurring Daily Charge
    option for nonhotel expenses. This option provides daily averages that are relevant mostly for hotel expenses, such as room rate and room tax.
    Select
    Charge Breakdown
    to capture nonrecurring charges on itemization lines. Example: You can itemize a meal charge to capture specific costs for food, beverages, and tips.
    If your organization supports level 3 credit card transaction data, Workday displays a green check mark icon on the expense line with the transaction that contains level 3 data. Additionally, if you enable automatic hotel itemization then Workday automatically populates itemization lines with level 3 data from hotel stays.
When payees select your nonhotel expense items on expense reports, Workday displays an
Itemization
section that includes a subsection with charge breakdowns for nonrecurring charges.
