Can you set up a user to only approve expenses, but not be able to create them?
Question: I am looking for clarification on how to setup employees to be able to approve Expense reports but not create them.
Does a person have to have "Time/Expense" under "Allow Entry" in order to approve expense reports?
If I only put "Time" under "Allow Entry" on the employee card and then on the subordinate make them the approver marked as Entry Type "Time & Expense" and "Approve Only", can they review/approve expense reports?
Answer: In this case the correct setting would be to set their employee record up “Allow Entry” field= “Time Only”
And in the approval setup if their “Entry Type” field is set to “Expense” (to approve expenses only) or “Time/Expense” (to be able to approve both time and expense) they will be able to approve expenses as well.
The “Allow Entry” field on the employee setup will only control their access rights to be able to create timesheets or expenses only
And the “Entry Type” in the approval setup screen will only control their ability to approve time and expense reports.
And the two fields are independent from each other.
