What are limits on deductions for business expenses?

When to take a non-reimbursement business expense deduction?

If the partnership agreement specifically states that the partnership has a non-reimbursement policy when expenses are incurred outside of the partnership or that it does not specifically require partners to pay for certain expenses, the deduction may be disallowed at the partner level.
