Authorizations

Authorizations request advance approval of future expenses. Employees create an authorization, enter future expenses, and request approval. To use this feature, you must enable expense authorizations.

To enable Expense authorizations, go to Administration > Application Settings > Expenses > Other settings and check the Enable expense authorizations box.

Note:

Authorizations do not prevent any expense entry.
