What happens when an expense claim is submitted for approval?

When an expense claim is submitted for approval, approvers receive a notification regarding the new claim that requires their attention. This notification serves to inform the approvers that there is an expense claim that has been submitted by an employee and requires their review and approval. This process ensures that there is a structured workflow for managing expenses within the organization, allowing for proper oversight and accountability.

This approach helps maintain financial controls, as it prevents automatic approvals without review. It also ensures that the submitters cannot edit the claim after submission, thereby preserving the integrity of the claim until it has been reviewed by the designated approvers. The system is designed to facilitate communication between submitters and approvers, promoting a transparent process for expense management.
