Overview

The expense reimbursement process allows employers to pay back employees who have spent their own money on business-related expenses. When employees receive an expense reimbursement, typically they would not report such payments as wages or income. These types of reimbursable expenses occur when employees travel for work. But can come from other activities related to their employment; for example, certain purchases of work-related supplies or tools.

You can use the Expense Management feature to approve or decline employee-submitted expense claims or submit one for an employee. You can also use this feature to edit an expense claim, filter the displayed results, and delete a record that is no longer required.

    You have the ability to export as a CSV from the HR platform, is there an option to upload the CSV into the payroll platform to manage reimbursement for employees?

    Hi Katrina MacDonald, thanks for getting in touch. There's not currently that option, unfortunately. However, I will raise this with our product team as a feature request.
