Tips   Assign credit card charges to an expense report

Charges on your credit card statement can be automatically added as expense items on an expense report, or assigned to an existing expense item.

You can assign a charge to any expense report whose status is Composing. After you submit an expense report, you can no longer assign charges to it.

If you are creating an expense report on behalf of another user, you must have permission to view their charges.

Depending on your configuration, the summary table in the Navigation Panel either lists each item associated with the request or groups items by expense type. When listed by item, if errors or policy violations are indicated, you can click the icon to edit the item.
