Flex HRM's new mobile app: expense details for breakfast for Accommodation for Norway

Soon it will be easier to separately report the breakfast cost directly when you create the expense in our new mobile app.

Background

When staying at hotels in Norway, breakfast is often included in the total amount on the receipt. For tax handling and accounting to be correct, the breakfast cost needs to be reported separately. Until now, this has meant an extra manual step for you as a user. We are now simplifying this.

How it works

When you register an expense with an expense code linked to the expense type "Accommodation", a new optional field is displayed: Of which breakfast. Note that the expense type "Accommodation" is only available if your company's home country is Norway.

Here's how to do it:

1. Create a new expense and select an expense code linked to "Accommodation".
2. The total amount is scanned from the receipt.
3. Enter the breakfast amount in the "Of which breakfast" field.
4. Save the expense.

The system automatically validates that the breakfast amount does not exceed the total amount. If it does, you will receive a message and can correct it before saving.

Also works with Flexie

We are planning for the functionality to also be available in Flexie, the AI agent. If you register a Norwegian accommodation expense, Flexie will ask you how much of the amount relates to breakfast. So you don't need to remember to enter it yourself – Flexie makes sure the information is included.
