T&E and VAT reclaim - what would you like to know?

What are some burning questions/issues you have around automating T&E and VAT reclaim

Didn't find your answer?

Next month, I'll be doing a webcast on automating the T&E process and VAT reclaim on expenses (Register here if you'd like). It's my first time doing something like this, and I'm a little nervous! The problem is that, well, I'm a journalist. I'll be joined by knowledgeable experts, of course, but I'd like to get you guys involved, too. So I was hoping to hear some of the Aweb community's thoughts/get some guidance/find out what questions you'd like answered.

Any help appreciated! So: FDs/CFOs/finance teams that have used technology and automation to help with the T&E process. More generally speaking, how did you choose your tech solution? Crucially, what was the implementation process like? How simple was it to start using? What role did the finance dept play in onboarding?

Also, did you know that a significant portion of your T&E spend may be recoverable in the form of VAT reclaims? Have you done this? Have you faced any challenges/have any questions? The focus is on what is and is not reimbursable, business travel guidelines, mileage and fuel rates for reimbursement and personal expenditure rules, is there anything I've missed?

I would include comments on the distinction between subsistence and business entertainment. (I have just corrected an HMRC Officer on this one!)

Literally just had Neil Warren raise this exact issue with me. You had to correct a HMRC officer, you say?

And why is this area so confusing?
