Creating an Expense Report for Another End User


The following procedure explains how to create an expense report, manually, for another end user of the application. A typical use of this procedure would be for an assistant to prepare an expense report for an executive. This procedure does not require that a formal reporting relationship exist—any end user who has access to the Assistant's Expense Reports view can prepare an expense report for another end user.
