They said meeting but come think of it wouldn’t it make more sense for them to pay full and write it off when the org do their taxes? But instead, having the restaurant not charge them and adding the extra leg work for the restaurant to submit paperwork when reporting their end of month sales. Like why making it harder for a restaurant when they have a million other things they need to do at the end of the day? I’m really not following the logic or am I just an idiot and confusing myself here?

For sure will give Harvard a call to get a better understand and proper way to handle this after reading comments such using P-card and not personal credit card, etc.

My main frustration is that there are tons of small businesses and mom and pop restaurants out there, and they really have no knowledge of this or know how to handle it. Restaurants where it’s just one guy in the kitchen who is also the owner, and how is he suppose to know when someone from a school show up with this and claim that they don’t need to pay the meal tax because it’s a business meal.

I’m not saying Org don’t have millions of things to do but they have people / departments who handles these things. Majority of small restaurants or retails don’t.
