Contractors can submit expenses for reimbursement by creating an expense report.
To create and submit an expense report:
In the Expenses tab, click "Add first expense" (if this is your first time submitting an expense) or click "Add new expense."
Enter a description of the expense.
Enter the expense amount, currency, and the date the expense was incurred.
Select a category for the expense.
Click "Choose File" to upload any related attachment, such as a receipt.
Click "Add new expense."
Your expense will appear in the Expenses tab’s Unreported expenses section. To edit the expense, click the Edit icon to the right.
Repeat steps 1-6 to add any additional expenses for this expense report.
To submit your expense report, in the Unreported expenses section, check the box beside the expense(s) you would like to include and click "Create an expense report."
Enter a description of the expense(s).
Add a name for the report.
Click "Send expense report." Your submitted expense report will appear in the Expense reports section of your Expenses tab, where you can see the status of your report. If you would like to make changes to a submitted report that is still awaiting approval, click the pencil icon to the right of it. In the expense report's details page, you can make your preferred edits or choose to Withdraw the report.
After you submit your expense report, your organization's administrators and managers (if applicable) will receive an email notification about the expense report. They will be able to review and approve or deny the expense reimbursement request.
If your expense report is rejected, you'll be able to see a note explaining the rejection when you click on the expense report in the Expenses tab. You can make changes to a rejected expense report by clicking the "Revise" button when you view the report. Once you have made the changes, click "Resend expense report" to resubmit it.
