Sorry guys, as a small business owner, I disagree. (note: for purposes of this discussion, I am using he/him/his as a universal for male and female-explanation so I don't get flammed)

He clearly stated that the company does not pay for his card and expect him to use it for business.

I am fairly sure that he does not steer his guests to iDine establishments, but rather to those that serve the business needs for that particular client.

He is on the hook for the charges should the company be late in reimbursement or become insolvent. Yes, there is a 60 day float, but that sometimes is not enough.

It is probable that the iDine credits do not post until after the expense report is submitted. They may or may not post in reality. Submit the receipt as provided by the restaurant.

Let's not make the submission of an expense account more complicated than it needs to be. That is unless this individual is a government employee, then make the process as convoluted and obtuse as possible.
