Submitting or Taking Back an Expense Report

To submit a finished expense report, click the Submit button at the top of the expense report.

Before submitting, make sure there are no errors or out-of-policy line items in the report. If a line item falls out of company policy (as set by your administrator), a red cancelled symbol appears in the Policy column of the list of line items, and a message highlighted in red appears at the top of the expense report explaining why the line item is out-of-policy. For example, a hotel amount may exceed company limits for the daily rate, or the expense may require a receipt to be attached. Correct the problem by editing the line item in question – see Adding and Editing Expense Report Line Items for details.

Tip: On the main Expense page, denied expense reports or line items are shown in red, and you can click the notifications to go to the expense report in question.

To correct an expense report you've already submitted, select the report you need to correct (see Viewing Expense Reports for details on viewing a report), and click Take Back (which replaces the Submit button in an already submitted report). You can make the necessary corrections and click Submit to resubmit the report.
