Create additional Travel Destinations (optional)

Objective

Travel Destinations are included 'Out of The Box' with their respective Per Diem Rates, Calendars, and Leave Management settings. HR Managers will not be required, unless absolutely necessary, to enter all of that information themselves. Travel Destinations are only required to be added for Per Diem rates, should an employee be required to travel to that destination for business.

This guide shows HR Managers how to create a Travel Destination that is not available 'Out Of The Box' for HR for Dynamics. This enables HR Managers to create and define Travel Destinations from within the solution. Creating a Travel Destination is only required where the destination is not already available in HR for Dynamics.
