ERR output for Revenue

Reports and JSON output that match Revenue’s categories and descriptions, ready for submission.

The app is straightforward and really convenient for the team to use, and the accuracy has been spot on. The whole process is much quicker and smoother now, and it’s great not having to deal with the old manual spreadsheets anymore. It’s a better way of doing things.

Enhanced Reporting Requirements

Compliance from the expenses you already process

ERR requires employers to report travel and subsistence, the remote working daily allowance and small benefit exemptions to Revenue in real time. Capture Expense already holds the journey hours, rate and category for each claim so the report is ready when you need it.

  • Categories and expense groups mapped to Revenue descriptions
  • Journey hours, applied rate, and cost captured per employee
  • JSON output and reports for submission

Subsistence rates

Subsistence rates set once and applied to every claim

Add rate bands once and link categories such as meals and accommodation so every claim applies the right band. When a claim for meals and mileage falls on the same day the journey hours fill both so the bands stay consistent.

  • Domestic and international rates
  • Location-based rates for cities and countries
  • Alerts when a claim exceeds the applicable rate
