Expense Authorisation – Dual Approval (Manager & Admin)
Installing this workflow tells Sense to send every expense claim to the employee's line manager first, then on to the Admin team for a second sign-off, no extra fields to configure. Built for organisations that want managerial and administrative oversight on every claim, regardless of amount.
How it works
Set your two-step approval order then let Sense route every claim through both
To use the Expense Authorisation: Dual Approval (Manager & Admin) workflow, simply install it from the Workflow Hub, it replaces the default amount-based routing without needing any new fields.
Then, every time an employee submits an expense claim, Sense will automatically send it to their line manager first, and any one manager can approve or reject it.
If the manager approves it, then the request moves on to the Admin team, and any one Admin can give the second sign-off.
If both approve it, then the employee is notified by email.
