Hi,
I would like to be able to set the actual payment date independent of the date span the expense is for. Example: I booked a hotel room for 3 nights. The hotel will charge me a week before arrival, but the expense should be spread over the 3 nights/days I am staying at the hotel.
The current field for day span is limited to the expense date.
Thanks
Hi Eva and welcome to the community! 
We want to keep TravelSpend as simple as possible. I’m not sure if it wouldn’t make the app quite a bit more complicated if we made a difference between payment date and the date that an expense is used on. Maybe you can explain further why you would like this. I usually enter expenses when I pay for them and that seems to work fine.
What Eva said. For instance suppose I’m travelling on the 29th of this month and have booked to check in for 3 nights from 29th to 31st but have made my payment today. As of now, I enter the payment under today’s date but I will have to skip the distribution option as it wouldn’t give me a 29th to 31st date range today. Nothing wrong with that, but where setting a distribution date independent of payment date is advantageous is, the split payments used show up along with expenses for those particular dates so you get a net value of expenses per day DURING the trip (29th, 30th and 31st where the payment for the accommodation has been splintered down to show how much I have spent on each of those days including the payment I have done earlier for a particular event - in this case accommodation expenses)
I’m not sure if I understand this correctly. Why can’t you just choose the 29th as the payment date and then spread it over three days?
Thank you, I’ll do that.
