-Sending / receiving an invoice**\\
+Please check the university website for the exact terms and conditions for travel expenses: https://www.staff.universiteitleiden.nl/human-resources/conditions-of-employment-salary-and-allowance/business-travel?cf=science&cd=leiden-observatory \\
-If you have placed an order, the invoice always needs to be addressed to the following address:\\
-Leiden University\\
-FAO Financial Shared Service Centre (FSSC)\\
-PO Box 9500\\
-RA Leiden\\
-The Netherlands\\
-//Include reference: SAP number + contact person!//
+**Subsistence allowance**\\
+When you enter the start and end time of your trip, the system will automatically maximize the amount of meals and the hourly component. For the meals you do not need to submit any receipts. However, make sure that the total amount that you claim is never more than what you actually spent during the trip. You can manually decrease the quantity of the meals until the amount matches the amount that you have spent. \\
-If you receive a digital invoice in your own mailbox, please send it electronically on to: <facturen@assc.leidenuniv.nl>.
+**Hourly component**\\
-NB: make sure SAP number/contact name is included on invoice.
+You cannot claim the hourly component (and day/evening component in case of travel within the Netherlands), unless you made certain costs that cannot be claimed under any of the other categories. Therefore, either make sure to set the hourly component to zero, or else explain in the remarks section what the costs were that you want to use the hourly component for. \\
-Payment condition Leiden University is standard 30 days.
+**Accommodation**\\
-If an invoice needs paying urgently, it is advisable to pre-pay the invoice and claim later (an advance payment can always be requested in SAP Self Service)
+There is a maximum amount that you are allowed to spend on accommodation per night, depending on the region, see here: https://www.caorijk.nl/cao-rijk/bijlage-6. If for any reason you need to exceed this amount, make sure to contact the Director of Operations (<operations@strw.leidenuniv.nl>) for approval before you book.  \\
-**Expense claim**\\
+**Uniglobe**\\
-For questions about outstanding expense claims, contact FSSC (☎ 071-527 5555)
+All flight tickets have to be booked through Uniglobe. If you are not yet an authorized booker, please contact the secretariat (<secretaries@strw.leidenuniv.nl>). Before you make any final bookings, always make sure your supervisor approves the flight that you plan to book. Train tickets and accommodations do not need to be booked through Uniglobe. \\
-[[https://www.staff.universiteitleiden.nl/human-resources/conditions-of-employment-salary-and-allowance/allowances-and-expense-claims?cf=science&cd=leiden-observatory|Expense claims]]
+If you find a flight that is cheaper than the options that are shown in the Uniglobe booking system, you can try calling them ((0) 88 202 30 80). Sometimes their employees are able to manually book the cheaper flight. \\
-NB: you can only submit your first expense claim after you have received your first salary. If you have made costs in the period before your first salary, you have to postpone your expense claim until after you have received your first salary, or you can submit a so-called PNIL form via this link: https://hop.leidenuniv.nl/sap/bc/ui5_ui5/sap/yul_dec_appl/index.html?sap-client=400&sap-language=EN
+**Travel by car**\\
+If you travel to a conference by car, the costs will be reimbursed base on the number of kilometers (Type of costs: Travel Netherlands > Travel costs; kilometer allow.). With your expense claim, submit a screenshot of google maps which shows the number of kilometers between begin and end destination.  Parking costs cannot be reimbursed. \\
+**Receipts**\\
+For all costs except meals you need to submit the receipts, preferably in pdf or JPEG/PNG. HEIC cannot be read by the SAP system. Make sure to save your receipts during the trip, as it might not be possible to get reimbursed without them. \\
-**Relocation expenses**\\
+**SAP-number**\\
-A compensation for relocation expenses can be discussed before the start of your contract. Please contact Robin Hölscher if you have questions: holscher@strw.leidenuniv.nl.
+Please ask your supervisor which SAP-number to use, or else contact Robin Hölscher (<imassist@strw.leidneuniv.nl>). \\
-**Financial Shared Services Centre (FSSC)**\\
+**Conversion rate**\\
-The Financial Shared Serviced Centre is the organisational centre where all the university's financial payments, such at outgoing payments (account payable, salary payments) and incoming credits (such as accounts receivable) are registered/accounted for.
+If the costs are made in any currency other then EUR/USD, use Oanda (https://www.oanda.com/currency-converter/en/?from=DKK&to=EUR&amount=360) to determine the conversion rate at the time of the trip. Please add the conversion rate that you used in the remarks section. \\
+**Type of costs**\\
+Make sure to use the correct type of costs and cost specification. If in doubt, please contact Robin Hölscher (<imassist@strw.leidenuniv.nl>). \\
+**Holidays**\\
+If you want to add some days of holidays to your work trip, you either need to show that this does not increase the costs, or you need to pay the difference in costs yourself. \\
+**Bringing partners**\\
+Please note that Leiden University does not cover any expenses of a partner traveling with you. It is possible however to book a flight for your partner through Uniglobe, but this ticket has to be paid directly by you (credit card or iDEAL). Uniglobe also charges an extra handling fee of ~20 euro. You cannot use the online travel tool for booking a flight for your partner, but need to contact Uniglobe by email: <ultravel@uniglobeat.nl>. \\
+**Deadline**\\
+Please submit your expense claim as soon as possible after the end of your trip, but no later than two months. You do not need to submit everything at once, if you already make some costs prior to the trip you can claim them immediately (but this is not mandatory). \\
+**Advance**\\
+To ask for an advance before you make any costs, go to ‘Travel and expenses’ > ‘New advance’ in the SAP self-service. After you have made the costs for which you received an advance, you will be asked to settle the advance by uploading the necessary proofs of payment, just like with a regular expense claim. You will then either receive the rest of the money if you have paid more than the advance, or be asked to repay an amount if it turns out you have spent less than anticipated. \\
+**Relocation expenses**\\
+A compensation for relocation expenses can be discussed before the start of your contract. Please contact Somayeh Morabbi if you have questions: <secretaries@strw.leidenuniv.nl>. \\
-The Service Point of FSSC will answer your questions about all financial-administrative services. The main cash office is also part of the FSSC Service Point. The FSSC office is located at Rapenburg 70, on the 2nd  floor in the C-wing (C2).
+**Expense claims for non-employees**\\
+You can only submit your first expense claim after you have received your first salary. If you have made costs in the period before your first salary, you can postpone your expense claim until after you have received your first salary, or you can submit a so-called PNIL form. This form can also be used by other non-employees who have made costs that will be reimbursed by the University: https://hop.leidenuniv.nl/sap/bc/ui5_ui5/sap/yul_dec_appl/index.html?sap-client=400&sap-language=EN \\
