Team members continue to enter claim information in exactly the same way as before. When they are ready to submit a claim, they generate the claim by specifying a date range. This groups all entries in this range and autmatically adds a unique expense claim reference. Once submitted by the team member, individual entries can no longer be changed. Managers can see the expense claim and can either approve it, in which case the individual entries stay locked, or reject the claim, which opens the entries so that the team member can make the necessary corrections.
