No. Since employees are entitled to a per diem allowance when traveling, the meal allowance cannot be used on business-related travel days. Business travelers can bill their meal allowances and per diems through Circula Expenses as usual.
Receipts for a specific month must always be submitted by the third day of the following month in order to be effective in the calculation of the allowance. This means that all receipts from July, for example, must be submitted in the Circula app by the 3rd of August.
