Crossing the T's & dotting the I's is key when reconciling data, especially financial data like travel. 

To ensure trip requests fall in-line with your company's finance and travel policies, the Locomote Corporate Travel Platform gives you the ability to add in data entry validations via the Billable or Non-Billable module, so when a Traveller or Travel Arranger completes a trip request, they will be required to enter data to confirm how the trip will be billed.

eg. Trip requests need to be billed via a purchase order, so they need to provide a PO number in a specific format. 

 

Data Entry Requirements

Key:

A = alpha characters

N = numbers

Data Configuration Options:

  • alpha characters only e.g. AAA
  • numeric characters only e.g NNNNN
  • alpha and numeric characters e.g. NNNAAA
  • define the number of characters and format, including special characters e.g. NN-AAAAA
