Actually yes. I would consider it in any case dishonest to cram an expense item into something different. Expenses are itemized for a reason.

As an analog I would also consider it dishonest if a company fibs its accounts by booking items into different categories.

There is usually no other reason then to hide an expense, which should not be there.

If a company approves taking customers to strip clubs then there's no reason not to itemize it as such.



Inconvenience/can't be bothered? Seems highly plausible to me and not that difficult to relate to. I hate filling my expense reports, I'd rather not have to pay stuff out of pocket in the first place.
