Creating expense reports


The Create Expense Report screen is where you begin the process of creating a new report from an approved request or from a list of your company's forms. We split the create functions for requests and reports onto two screens to make it easier to find the request or form that you are looking for.

Do one of the following to access the Create Expense Report screen.

Is for this purpose...

  1. Vendor and Currency

This field appears only if you have more than one vendor number, in which case you must make a selection in order to create a report. Select the appropriate vendor number and its corresponding currency from the dropdown list.

In previous versions, the prompt to select a vendor appeared on a separate screen, after you selected the request or form from which you wanted to create a report.

  1. Expense Report tabs
    New!

These tabs let you quickly move among your different options for expense reports. You are currently in the Create Expense Report tab. From here, you can click:

  • Edit Expense Report to work on a report that you already created. Once you select the request or form from which you want to create a report, e-xpense automatically brings you to this tab.

  • View Expense Report to view a report that you already created, in read-only format.

  • View Previous Expense Report to search for archived reports.

  1. Create (from request)

Once you find the approved pre-authorization request from which you want to create an expense report, click Create to the left of the request.

  1. Create (from form)

Once you find the form for which you want to create an expense report, click Create to the left of the form.

If you do not see the form, then you have to create a pre-authorization request first.
