My company books my travel and pays for it, using the corporate card. I have an e-plus number, is it possible to enter these reservation ID's in or something to that effect and get credit for my rentals?

Enterprise Plus doesn't track rentals for credit, so it doesn't matter if your rentals have your e-Plus number in them. All e-Plus does is make the rental transaction a minute faster, as the agent doesn't have to type all your driver's license information in each time.

If you have a National Emerald Club account, however, you can earn Emerald Club Rental Credits with your Enterprise rentals. I don't know if you can modify your existing Enterprise rentals with your National EC account, but the Enterprise rental agent should be able to add it at time of rental.

As for crediting past rentals to an Emerald Club account: don't know and haven't heard anyone's experience from here. Kinda interested to see if it's possible, though...

There is no technological reason why your booking profile can't be updated to include your Emerald Club # going forward. Whether you pay on your corporate card or the company pays on its global card is of no consequence.

It's unlikely that you will be able to add your Emerald # to past rentals, but it's worth calling to ask. However, before I did anything which may affect some negotiated deal between your company and a vendor, I would check with your corporate travel / TA first. Don't want irate employer over a couple of rental points.

Adding frequent flyer or other loyalty program numbers to corporate travel reservations should not change the contract rate. In my experience, corporate reservations have several grids. One of those grids says "Frequent Flyer Number," "#1 Club number," "Emerald Club ID," etc. Worst case scenario, call the vendor. They can usually simply insert the appropriate number in the box.
