Hospitality receipt (DE only)

The bewirtungsbeleg is an additional receipt that is required if a business meal is to be claimed as a business expense and deducted from taxes. 

Many businesses find it cumbersome to manually handle the Bewirtungsbeleg, as it typically requires requesting this receipt from the restaurant, filling it out by hand, and then uploading it to Pleo. This feature is intended to help customers automate this requirement, as it can be done automatically digitally without a handwritten receipt in the expense flow(s).

Good to know: This receipt is not the same as the cash register receipt, i.e the Bewirtungsrechnung (restaurant bill). 

How an admin can enable Storebox for the organisation

Only a Pleo admin can enable employees to generate a hospitality receipt (bewirtungsbeleg) by configuring a category with hospitality receipt generation.

1. In Pleo, go to the Settings 
2. Access Accounting
3. Click on Categories
4. On the chosen category, click on make attendees mandatory (people icon)
5. Switch to enable hospitality receipt generation
6. Click Save

When an employee selects the configured category for an expense:

• Out-of-pocket expense: They will be automatically prompted to enter the required details to generate the receipt in Pleo. 
• Card expenses: They can generate the receipt by clicking on Add hospitality receipt.
