Is A Receipt Required?

I see shops for an auto parts store are currently being offered. In reading the guidelines, I find nowhere is there a proof of performing the shop. That begs the question, how does one invoice?

I'm thinking a picture of the front door or building might be proof enough for the invoice.

In other shops, I've done this (inventory, most recently); otherwise a business card?

If there is no purchase required, a receipt would not be necessary. I would imagine a business card or literature, including a picture of the building would be in order. I would email the scheduler.

the guidelines should tell you exactly what is required. If it doesn't, shoot an email to the scheduler and if they don't reply in time, take a picture when you leave showing the address on the building if possible, get a business card if appropriate (it isn't always; the auto parts store where i work doesn't have them), or pull a geoverify code.

On the Advance Auto Parts Shops, I had each location provide me with a printout of what I asked about. This was accepted by the MSC...

I'm still learning 24/7.

I do a fast food shop here that requires a purchase, but no uploads are required for the report. So strange, but I have always been paid and reimbursed without fail. I take a pic of the receipt for my own records, but the report doesn't ask for it.

There are shops with no POV required.

I have a company that just asks for the receipt number in the report so evidently they can look thru their system and see if it is the same as what I claim as expenses. I love it when I don't have the extra work of scanning and attaching.

I take a time and date stamped photo with my smart phone and attach that as the receipt. Worked last year, and I expect it to be fine today.

Done a shop the other day and a picture of a price tag and GeoVerfiy is all that was required.

The MSC which does Advance Auto parts doesn't use GeoVerify. Am I missing something? (Probably yet another shopping opportunity with a different MSC, I suspect.)
