It appears that you have confused between the two phrases. A salesperson may have to attend his/her client in the same city. The means of transportation could be bus, 2-wheeler, 4-wheeler, etc. When a salesperson claims the fare, it is called Conveyance Allowance as the commute is within the same city.
A salesperson might have to travel to an outstation to attend a client. For this, his/her travel could be by bus, rail, airplane, etc. The outstation visit may require staying at a hotel as well. Therefore, when a salesperson raises the claim, it will include travel as well as accommodation charges. This is known as Travel Allowance.

Dear Madam,
Any travel policy covers local and outstation conveyance, lodging, boarding, and incidental expenses. There is no difference between travel and conveyance allowances except in nomenclature. Both are the same. You can use either one for both.

Dear Ms. MV,
The section on Traveling & Allowances in a company's Statutory Book clearly defines travel as a movement from one location to another outstation location and comprises travel (whatever the mode) + incidentals including boarding and lodging.
Conveyance allowance is the payment made for commuting to and fro between the residence and the place of work. It is normally included as CA in the salary slip of the staff.
