    • If any of your expense items have breached policy, they may have been flagged. Flagged expense items will display a small flag icon indicating which type of breach has occurred. For information on how to view the flags against an expense item and provide justifications, read View Flag Information.

    • If any of your expense items are blocked for breaching policy, they will need to be corrected or deleted in order to submit the claim. Tap on the Delete expense item button in order to discard this expense from the claim.

      Note: Depending upon your organisation's configuration, the details of a flag may be displayed immediately after you have added an expense item to a claim, if it has breached expenses policy.

    • If the Submit button is displayed, tap this to submit your claim into the approval process.


    • If the Next button is displayed, you will be required to input further details. More information on the steps that you may need to complete can be found in the links below.

Split your Claim

This page will allow you to select which item types (Cash Items/Credit Card Items/Purchase Card Items) you want to submit with your claim. This will be available if your organisation permits that you can part submit claims and if you have the relevant credit card/purchase card items to reconcile.

Note: If you choose to part submit your claim, the items that are being submitted will automatically be added to a new claim before being submitted. All other items will stay on the original current claim.

Depending upon your organisation's system settings, you may be forced to submit only cash, credit card or purchase card items. Alternatively you may be able to select a combination of cash, credit card and purchase card items.

  1. After tapping next on the Claim Summary screen, you will be taken to a page which asks Which items would you like to submit?

  2. You will be presented with one of the following options:

    • An Item Type field which will allow you to only select one item type to submit (Cash Items/Credit Card Items/Purchase Card Items). You are only able to select one of these item types as your organisation as specified that cash and credit card items cannot be on the same claim.


    • A list of the item types which you are permitted to submit (Cash Items/Credit Card Items/Purchase Card Items), each with a toggle to allow you to select and deselect.


  3. Once you have made your selection, tap Next/Submit.
