From spreadsheet to app.

The calculation is built to follow the spreadsheet the settlement used to be made in. Half-days, rates and deductions are now calculated the same way every time.

I developed Travel expenses to calculate per diem allowances for employees who travel for work. The fields and calculations follow the Excel sheet the settlement used to be made in.

You enter departure and arrival, and the app counts half-days and calculates the allowance straight away. Deductions for free meals, expenses, driving your own car, travel advances and private bills can be added when they apply.

When several people travel together, the allowance is calculated per person and shared costs are split evenly. Each person gets their own PDF. With several people, the PDFs are bundled in a ZIP file.

The app does not store settlements. It calculates and creates the PDF directly in the browser.

From travel dates to PDF.

The whole settlement is done in one form. Totals update as you type.
