Default FDX FxCal Per Diem Calculator

FxCal 4.4.0 should be released by Apple this week.
The new feature is FxCal Per Diem Calculator, which summarizes data from the company web site and presents an annual excludable allowance.
Just in time for tax season.

Also fixes the issue where calendar events are not always saved after a refresh.

I just bought a macbook pro. Do you have an app that will auto check open time? I can't use the company I-pad of course and I just gave my son my old I-pad.

So am I correct in my understanding of this, that it will recap last years Per Diem? Not 2014 but applicable for 2013? If so, awesome update!

And no additional fee!
But I do expect you to have an Open Time subscription

I noticed a problem with the last update.

Every time I start auto polling and switch apps then come back, auto poll has terminated.

Hope you will fix with the update.

I actually did that by design.
Autopoll does not work in the background.
When I am auto polling and go to another app, I am not auto polling, as FxCal actually freezes.
If I choose to go back to FxCal, I always start with a manual poll, and do not wait for an AutoPoll cycle, and then restart AutoPoll if desired.
Hope this solution is OK.

appDude,

Thanks for the continual product improvement.

Is there a reason why in the newer FxCal version for iPhone we cannot view the whole PFC page on the screen? (On the iPhone, I liked getting rid of the fixed screen display, to view my whole calendar for the month, but I can't do it anymore. I have to scroll through the screen and only see parts if it at a time, which I find impractical. I'm guessing though that it has to do with FDX IT and how they redesigned PFC...).
