How to customize workflow approval for transfer and reimbursement requests?

In order to maintain control while delegating team expenses and invoice payments, you can use multi-layer approval workflows to keep control over big amounts to reimburse or pay with configurable approvals.

This feature will be useful to you if you need to delegate tasks like reimbursement requests and paying invoices, ensuring your company can scale without the risk of overspending and apply your expense policy. This feature is available through Account Payable and Expense & Spend Management add-ons.

Which roles can set it up?

An Account holder and an Admin can customize a workflow approval on the web app only.

The Employee and Accountant roles can make transfer requests for approval.

Managers with transfer permission or/and reimbursement can send requests for approval.

How to customize an approval workflow?

Follow the steps below to effectively manage and control your company's expenses and payments through a structured approval workflow, ensuring that big expenses are properly overseen.

• From your computer, go to Settings: navigate to the Tools customization section and click on Approval workflows.
• Select and edit workflow: choose the approval workflow you want to edit, either transfer request or reimbursement, then click Edit workflow.
• Set workflow rules: define the rules of the workflow by first defining the amount and then by specifying the roles/person who can approve the requests.
