Multiple Withdrawal Accounts?

1) Do you allow ACH reimbursement from multiple withdrawal accounts? We have 5-6 different accounts we reimburse from for various reasons. Depending on the person or activity we will have to pay from a different account.
2) Can you reimburse 1 report from multiple withdrawal accounts? For example, I go on a business trip and if Airfare came from one account and Hotel was paid from a different account, but it's all on one expense report. Is that possible?
Thanks

I’ve never done that before, but I would assume that it’s possible. I know that there are folks that need to reimburse in different currencies.

Hi @rgondo - thanks for posting. I wanted to provide some clarity here for you and for others with this same question.

- An admin can add multiple withdrawal accounts to reimburse reports with. However, in the policy > Reimbursement section, we only support a single bank account as the policy default. The policy default account is used for all reimbursements under that specific policy unless manually changed.
2) Can you reimburse 1 report from multiple withdrawal accounts? For example, I go on a business trip and if Airfare came from one account and Hotel was paid from a different account, but it's all on one expense report. Is that possible?
- It's not currently possible to reimburse a single report from separate withdrawal accounts. Expenses would need to be placed on a report based on the account that would reimburse those expenses, which may end up being difficult for your employees to consistently do accurately.

@rgondo, I believe ACH reimbursement is policy specific, but I don’t think that is going to resolve the issue. I don’t think there is a way that you could split the reimbursement for a report into different accounts. Minimum, you would need to have a report for each reimbursement.

Gotcha, thanks. Do you know if we can set up multiple withdrawal accounts so we can choose a particular one to reimburse from?

Good point - that makes sense. Thanks. I think we can do with that setup and forego issue #2 - our accounting team can handle that part at the end of the period.
