Out-of-pocket expense claims from staff, usually sent from the mobile app with a photo of the receipt. Office staff review each claim, approve or reject it, export approved claims for payroll, and mark them paid once the money has gone out.

Step by step

  1. 1

    Open Reimbursements from the sidebar and review each claim on the Pending tab. Click View in the Receipt column to check the receipt against the Amount and Category.
