Steps: Set Up Security for Expense Items

Steps: Set Up Security for Expense Items

Create expense items.
You can use security segments to make expense items available to all payees or restrict the items to subsets of payees, such as executives and managers. You can include expense items on 1 or more security segments, and can include:
  • A combination of individual and grouped expense items.
  • All expense items in an expense policy group.
  • Individual expense items.
Examples: You want to restrict expense items for:
  • First-class airfare to C-level executives.
  • Mobile phone charges for sales team members.
  • Payees in specific regions.
  1. Access the
    Create Expense Item Security Segment
     task.
    Create security segments for each of your access requirements. For efficiency, we recommend that you create segments from the least to the most restrictive.
