Add support in per diem (daily) allowances
per diem allowance is when the policy defines a fixed amount per day for expenses such as food etc. The traveller is entitied to receive this amount regardless if he/she spent them. It is a common practice that prevents the traveler from messing with lots of small invoices for any beverage used, as well as streamline the company expenses (less open to cheat such as collection of invoices from other people) and also pose a limit to personal expense. It is usually has limits also from the perspective of the local Tax Law.
In practical terms the user is getting per diem allowance according to the number of days spent on the trip. Per diem amounts should be defined in settings by the admin and should normally enable different rates for different roles (executives/employees) and different rates to different countries (or countries groups) where it is known that when you travel to W.Europe the cost of hotel is higher than in E.Europe etc.

Can you enable the user to set the rate. In Australia our tax office sets rates for various different location across the country and internationally and they all vary so we have hundreds of different rates that a user is to choose from.
