Managing your expenses

Please see the following article: Raising expenses from business card transactions

Since they are raised from a card managed within Expend, these expenses are classified as expense reports. Once created, they are listed on the My Expenses page, and can be managed in the same way as all your other expenses.

Removing your card

Please note:

  • After removing a card, you will no longer be able to raise expenses from existing card transactions, even if they were done before the card was deleted. Please ensure all expenses have been raised before deleting your card.
