Why is providing the receipts such a big deal for you guys? All major airlines and hotels have these magical things called "websites" which you can log into and download every previous trip receipt.
Seems like you're making this a bigger deal than it is. Download & provide the receipts and you'll be fine
1. Escalate to your RP...now. I'm a partner and I'd be in someone's shit over this really fast, because it's stupid. Don't try to fight the auditor, let someone else do it...someone who signs their check.
2. C1 is wrong, we aren't required to submit receipts. I consciously don't save anything that's not required by policy. As we used to say in my past life (military): "If the minimum wasn't good enough, it wouldn't be the minimum".
No one just takes 3k back. At deloitte you are asked what the situation was and then if your answers are unacceptable , then they hold back on your paycheck. Can't imagine PWC is that different.
There was no warning or questions on the 3k. The other 14k they are asking for manager approval. The 3 k is 100% charges that happened to hit Amex on a Sunday. So no, nothing to hide. All charges are legit - was on client site - always used Voyager. Just pissed at the thought of spending time fixing the error of an auditor that has never had to expense something.
LOL @A4 😂😂😂😂
Omg A4!
Are you Public Sector OP?
What do you mean by receipts came in on weekends?
That is retarded
This is wild
Wow
Don't worry. The buffer has been hitting later and later. I got audited too. Had manager/director sign off on stuff and it was taken car of. I do know the put in the bottom of your stomach though. It sucks, but you'll get through it. It's just a fuck you sort of moment when it's so obvious it's business related.
Holy shit I got an expense audit email last night. They must be doing the rounds. Saying I charged out of policy meals and booking travel in a city I didn't charge time on.
@p11, (and others), thanks for the advice. My coach was CC'ed on the original emails - I'll reach out to him Monday and we'll likely get my RP involved, too. I know all the charges are legitimate, just will irritate me if I have to spend hours going through 9 months of hotel emails, etc.
@P7 - No, not bench staff doing this. We (ie, my partners and I) pay people to do this full time. RPA and other new tech should make this more or less obsolete. I'm sure the emphasis on controlling our costs to run the firm has these folks more anxious to prove their worth.
.. AZZzZz
Clearly there is more to the story which is convinenently being left out
I think there is some metric now of how many things they catch. I once got an ask of why the serial numbers on receipts weren't in order on the receipts I got from my taxi driver. E.g. Receipts t number 12709 was received before 12706. How do I know....
Why is this even a thing? Client pays our expenses not PwC!!!
Hmmm...perhaps we can self-implement RPA with AI...save money, automate compliance, and safeguard your billable time (and sanity)
Maybe you entered the days improperly. U can't put a m-f change in on a sat. You have to put it in for the day it occurred/finished
Calm down. Not resubmit them on the day they were incurred ie thrusday. They will go thru
