Recent Change in Travel Expense Policy
Important Change in Disney Travel Policy Mobile
Phone Reimbursement Effective immediately thanks
to a recent change in Disneys Travel policies,
individuals are no longer required to mail or fax
receipts or cover sheets to DWSS for mobile phone
expenses if the dollar amount to be reimbursed is
under 50.00 USD, and the reimbursement is for
100 business use. Simply complete an expense
report, submit it for approval and you are done!
Should you still wish to save the trip cover
sheet for your records, please consider saving it
as a PDF file, rather than printing
it. Individuals who have personal calls on their
statement will still be required to break out
those calls using the mobile calculation
worksheet, and submit the worksheet and
coversheet to DWSS even if the dollar amount is
less than 50. The mobile calculation worksheet
can be found on the ESPN TE Help page on the Hub

Quick Tips and Tricks
Airline Travel Rules
All employees are required to use the Company's
Travel Department to make hotel, air, and ground
transportation arrangements. Corporate Travel's
web based on-line reservation system, TraveLink,
provides numerous benefits and should be used
when requesting domestic department travel or
simple round-trip reservations.
Employees should make AIRLINE reservations as
early as possible to take advantage of advance
purchase discounts. Airline Reservations should
be booked at least 21 days in advance unless the
circumstances do not allow for such planning.
Due to this requirement, you may be required to
create an expense report for this airline
charge(s) prior to you taking your trip.
Employees are required to use the lowest logical
airfare available.
Employees may retain frequent flyer program
benefits. However, participation in these
programs must not influence flight selection in a
manner that would result in incremental cost to
the company beyond the lowest available airfare.
Non-refundable Tickets Exchange fees related to
changing non-refundable tickets are costly and
the exchange process is time consuming.
Therefore, it is recommended that employees
utilize non-refundable tickets when they are
confident that their travel plans will not change
or the savings is significant relative to
potential exchange fees.
Baggage Fees - Employees will be reimbursed for
reasonable airline baggage fees. Amounts should
be coded to Airfare in the employees SAP TE
expense report.
If a trip is cancelled, the employee should work
with Corporate Travel to arrange for the use of
the ticket for future travel if it is a
non-refundable ticket. Corporate Travel will
cancel all reservations and initiate any refunds
to the Corporate Card if that was the means of
payment. The employee will still need to submit
an expense report for the airfare credit to clear
the balance on their corporate card. The After
Hours Travel Number is 1-877-777-3974. ESPN In
House Number is 1-860-766-2283.
Air Phone and In-flight Internet Charges
Reasonable charges related to Air phone and
In-Flight internet services required for business
purposes will be reimbursed to Vice Presidents
and above, and to other employees whose business
responsibilities demonstrate such a need. Use of
the JPMorgan Chase Corporate Visa Card is
required to receive the Companys preferential
air phone rates.
- Always
- Carry valuables (jewelry, laptop computers,
cameras, etc.) on board the aircraft. - Carry important and/or confidential documents on
board the aircraft. - Clearly tag your luggage with name, address and
phone number. - Retain baggage claim receipts for checked luggage.

Quick Tips and Tricks
Expense Types did you know this is the most
common error made in creating expense reports?
- Definitions for most frequently used expense
types - Air Travel-The expense of public air
transportation while on company business. Also
includes baggage fees. - Automobile Rental-The expense of renting vehicles
while on company business. Document No If this
field is blank, input the Virtually There
6-digit itinerary code assigned by Corporate
Travel. - Business Meals-A meal shared by an employee and
business partner(s) to discuss business matters
that pertain to and benefit the Company. A meal
consumed by oneself is not considered a business
meal and will not be reimbursed. The purpose of
the meal is to conduct business. In SAP TE, the
number field should be used to detail the total
number of people in attendance. - Travel Meals and Snacks-The expense of a meal or
snacks consumed while traveling on Company
business, by one or more Company employees, for
which a business discussion was not the primary
purpose. In SAP TE, the number field should be
used to detail the total number of people dining.
Employees receiving Per Diem do not expense
personal meals. - Per Diem Meals/Incidentals (US Only)-The daily
allowances by TWDC for employees with Per Diem
travel status. IRS limits apply. - Lodging (Room Tax Only)-The expense of lodging
while on company business. Other hotel charges
(e.g. room service, internet connection, parking,
etc.) can not be included in this expense type.
In SAP TE, the number field should be used to
detail the number of nights of lodging. If the
Document No. field is blank, fill it with 1000. - Mileage-When using personal, employee owned
vehicle for business related travel. The amount
of miles driven can be expensed. SAP calculates
the rate based on IRS guidelines. Detailed
mileage log is required. - Ground Transportation-The expense of public
ground transportation, including taxi, shuttle,
bus or subway, while on company business. In SAP
TE, the number field should be used to detail
the number of trips (1 for a one-way trip, 2 for
a round-trip fare). - Business Calls (Non-Wireless)-The expense
associated with making business related telephone
calls from a land line. ATT Calling card charges
would also be expensed in this category. - Mobile Phones-The monthly expense associated with
a TWDC employee cell phone or Blackberry. Only
the business usage amounts may be expensed.
Documentation of itemization showing the personal
vs. business usage is required.

Quick Tips and Tricks
Credit Card Buffer
- What is a BUFFER?
- The Credit Card Buffer is the repository in SAP
of all expenses and credits posted to your
JPMorgan Chase Corporate Visa card. - Understanding your BUFFER
- All your Corporate credit card receipts (and
credits too) will be in your buffer (Credit
Card Imports). - If you would like to display your buffer without
opening an expense report, select the Credit Card
Imports tab (in SAP). - JPMorgan Chase updates these expense items on a
nightly basis - Policy states The credit card buffer within the
TE system includes all merchant charges and
credits and facilitates the completion of expense
reports by allowing you to select items from the
buffer without having to re-key the information.
Another time saver is that most buffer items
related to domestic travel can be submitted on an
expense report without requiring a receipt. - Using the buffer items to populate your expense
reports along with timely filing of expense
reports also enables you to reconcile your
monthly corporate credit card statement more
easily, avoiding the possibility of late charges
that are not reimbursable by the company.
- Tips regarding your BUFFER
- You MUST pull your credit card receipts from your
buffer when filling out your expense report. - Credits applied to your corporate credit card
MUST be expensed also. If your credit is for an
expense report already processed, that expense
report must be re-opened and the credit applied
to that expense report. - NEVER, NEVER attempt to delete a credit (or any
other charges) from your BUFFER - Wait for your credit card receipts to hit your
buffer. Do not create/complete your expense
report until your credit card receipts are in
your buffer.

Per Diem.. What is that??
- Definition of Per Diem
- Per Diem is the reimbursement for meals and
incidentals (breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks and
tips) at a flat daily rate. This eliminates the
need for the employee to maintain receipts for
these types of expenses. The actual costs for
the meals and incidentals are not reimbursed,
only the flat rate. - To qualify for Per Diem reimbursement, it
requires overnight travel. - The United States General Service Administration
(GSA) sets the Per Diem rates. - For U.S., Canada and Mexico, current Per Diem
daily rate is 48 per day. This equates to - 27 for dinner
- 13 for lunch
- 8 for breakfast
- IRS Guidelines states that on travel days (both
departure and return), depending on time of
travel, the Per Diem must be prorated and
reimbursed at 75. Example if you are traveling
in the afternoon, you are not entitled to a full
day of Per Diem. - 75 of the daily Per Diem rate 48 36.
When requesting Per Diem reimbursements, it is
critical that the Country/Region fields be
completed correctly. (General Data screen and
Receipts screen) If incorrect, reimbursement
could be subjected to federal and state income
taxes.
Dont forgetEnter the number of days you are
claiming Per Diem in the Number Field. You must
fill in the description field for number of days
_at_ Per Diem rate.

Quick Tips and Tricks
When do I use the DO NOT PAY Expense Type?
- TE Corporate Policy clearly states that
Corporate Credit Cards are NOT to be used for
personal reasons. - The only time personal expenses may be charged to
the Corporate Card is when traveling on company
business. - Personal expenses, such as in-room movies and
health club or spa charges which appear on the
hotel folio, may be charged to the Corporate
Card. - Using the Itemization tool in the TE module, you
can remove the personal expenses from your
lodging receipt by selecting DO NOT PAY expense
type. - Using the Itemization tool will allow these
charges to be segregated from JPMorgan Chase and
the employee will be responsible for payment. - If the Corporate Credit Card is used by mistake
for personal expenses, the receipt will appear in
your Credit Card Buffer and you will need to
remove by using the DO NOT PAY expense type.
JPMorgan Chase will not pay and the employee will
be responsible for payment. Never, Never attempt
to delete charges from your Credit Card Buffer.
