Can I submit a purchase from a previous month?

Short answer

Yes - you can submit a purchase from a previous month, but it must be submitted with a date in the current month.

This means it will count toward the current month’s reimbursement, not the original purchase month.

How this works

JOON processes reimbursements based on a monthly submission cycle. Purchases do not automatically rollover to the following month if you exceed your allowance. For this reason, you may choose to hold onto your purchase and submit it the following month to receive the full reimbursement.

If you submit a purchase from a previous month:

You must enter a date in the current month
The purchase will count toward your current month’s allowance and reimbursement cycle
It will be treated as a current-month submission, not a late reimbursement

What this means for you

The purchase will not be reimbursed with the original month purchased.
It will be included in the current month’s reimbursement batch
Your current month allowance will be used

Example

You made a purchase on January 20
You forgot or chose not to submit it and are now submitting in February

In this case:

You would submit the purchase with a February date
The reimbursement will be processed with February reimbursements

Important to keep in mind

This is not considered a late reimbursement request
- If you need to submit a late reimbursement request, please submit a Late Reimbursement Request support form.
The purchase will follow the current month’s timeline and limits
Your employer’s category rules and allowance still apply

For connected card purchases, eligibility requests must be made before the month closes. If the month has already closed, you will need to submit the purchase manually with a purchase date in the current month.
