You can create policies or rules that employees must adhere to when they submit expense reports. With these policies in place and active, if an employee submits an expense report that violates a specific policy, the employee will receive a message explaining which policies have been violated. Depending on how you set up your policies, the employee may still be able to submit the report, but the transactions that have violated the policies will be marked for the expense report approver to view. If the report cannot be submitted, the employee will have to change the transactions that violate the policies.
