The system now has the remarkable ability to automatically calculate Foreign Per Diem.</p><p>Thanks to Ken and Frank, the U.S. State Department's Per Diem schedule is seamlessly integrated into our Travel System. This integration eliminates the need for travelers and preparers to manually look up the M&amp;IE rates, streamlining the process and saving valuable time.</p><p>Additionally, please note that incidentals, such as maid service tips and porter tips, are now included within the Per Diem. These expenses should no longer be itemized separately.</p><p>For detailed instructions on the new enhancement, please refer to the attached document.</p></div>
