Expense approvals and reimbursements

Move expenses from checking to reimbursement with visible responsibility.

Configure approval policies, assign checkers, review proof and exceptions, and keep approved employee claims ready for controlled payment.

Why this matters

Approval and payment are different jobs—and the app keeps them separate.

An expense can be valid without being paid, and a payment should not hide incomplete proof. Voice Office keeps checking, approval, reimbursement readiness and final payment as visible states.

01

Approval policies

Configure amount ranges, target types, requester assignments, invoice thresholds and ordered approval levels.

02

Checker action desk

Each checker sees the expenses currently requiring their decision, with level and evidence context.

03

Owner override

An owner approval can complete all remaining checking levels and move an eligible claim forward.

04

Return with reason

Rejected or returned records carry a clear correction reason back to the requester.

05

Reimbursement readiness

Approved employee-funded expenses can be grouped into reimbursement records for finance review.

06

Payment evidence

Finance records a transaction reference before marking a reimbursement paid.
