FINANCE REVIEW · Workflow idea

Make expense records easier to enter while keeping every amount open to correction.

For work involving authorized receipt images, merchant and purchase fields, totals, and proposed expense records, check the facts and permissions before taking the next step. Prepare proposed receipt fields and a confirmation summary for an account owner to verify. Receipts can expose identity, location, and sensitive purchases, while image reading may misstate tax or totals. Explain collection and retention, restrict images, check every field against the original, and require owner approval before accounting or reimbursement use.
