Expenses follow this flow:
</p>
<ul >
<li > <strong > Employee(s) record expenses, </strong> and send expense reports to their manager;</li>
<li > <strong > Manager(s) approve or refuse expense reports;</strong> </li>
<li > <strong > The accounting department posts journal entries and reimburses employees </strong> </li> (if the expense has been paid by the employee directly);

<li > When you charge</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li > Provide your customer with detailed reports (along with copies of receipts)</li>
<li > Ask your expert accountant what tax must be claimed to your customer</li>
