Expense Claims

An expense claim is a collection of receipts from personal spending that need to be reimbursed by the business. Each department in your organization can add an employee to record everyone's expenses, then submit the expense claim to be reviewed and approved by Finance.

Admin needs to create an employee as a supplier to enable the employee to capture Expense Claims. Once the Supplier is created and an employee linked to the Supplier, you will be able to see the Expense document under the Add New - Document Type section.
