Expense Claim Line — entity reference

One expense on an expense claim: category, date, amount and GST, merchant and invoice details, payment mode, receipt, cost allocation, the Expense GL Account it posts to, and rebilling fields. When the claim posts, each line with an Expense GL Account and a non-zero amount is debited for its allowed amount: amount plus tax, reduced by the lower of the Disallowed Amount ceiling and the Approved Amount. Lines without an Expense GL Account are skipped. Lines are added from the claim's Lines tab through one of two standard entry forms: a quick-add form with the Expense GL Account, or a full form without it.

Fields

AmountAmountCurrencyThe expense amount before tax. A line whose amount plus tax is zero is not posted.
