Overview

With Expense Flag Rules, we becomes the 24/7 policy enforcer, freeing up admins and reviewers from time-consuming reviews, and automatically flags transactions with warnings or as out-of-policy on their behalf.

Expense-flag rules, flags transactions that are out of policy. When an expense gets flagged, an email will be sent to the cardholder and to their reviewers or admin to have a conversation and remediate.


How to set up auto-flag rules?

Step 1: Start by navigating to the settings under the cards module.

Step 2: Click on spend controls, under the 'post spend' section, you will find the 'expense flag rules'.

Step 3: Select it to either edit or delete an existing rule. For this guide, we will create a new expense rule.

Step 4: First, you will need to enter a threshold amount. Next, you will need to select either the department, project, merchant, or category. These criteria can be chosen in various combinations.

Step 5: Once you have set the criteria, click on 'save'.

From now on, any expense made using a card that meets these criteria will automatically be flagged.
