At a glance

  • As a supervisor, you can view and approve expenses submitted by your assigned employees.

  • You can add a rejection reason for rejected expenses.


Users with the role of supervisor get to approve or reject expenses of employees within their expense groups.

Note

  • Users who only have the supervisor role can find their employees' expenses in the “To-dos” tab under “Approve & Control”.

  • Users who have both the supervisor and accountant role can find their employees' expenses in the “Pending Approval” tab under “Approve & Control”.


The structure of an expense

To view the details of an expense, simply click on the expense. You will find the following information in the detailed view:
