Follow the Recommended Expense and Voucher Workflow
Overview
This guide will help you process an expense or voucher from setup through entry, approval, payment, verification, and correction.
Each transaction has a traceable lifecycle from detailed record to ledger and settlement.
Who can do this
You need access to Permissions appropriate to each separated role: setup, entry, approval, payment, review, and correction.
Before you start
Establish expense heads, accounts, payment methods, approval limits, document evidence, period controls, and role separation.
Before saving, check that the correct company is open and that you have permission to complete this task.
Where to find it
Back Office → Expenses & Vouchers.

Check your work
Sample transactions and confirm evidence, authorization, document chain, balances, and checking.
Take a moment to check your work before closing the window. This small check can save time later.
If something goes wrong
Do not combine approval and payment privileges without business authorization.
