Expense items can be recorded as a standard expense on the job, or a timesheet expense which is reimbursable to an employee.
There are two types of expenses:
standard expense, for things like parking or tip fees.
timesheet expense, for things like site allowances or fuel allowances (to be paid to the employee in their pay).
Permission Groups
Any user can view their own timesheets and enter their own expenses. Users in the Supervisor and Management Permission Groups can also view timesheets for other users and enter expenses on their behalf.
Custom permissions
For custom permission groups, Site Administrators can set visibility via Permission Groups > Users > Filters > Current User and Permission Groups > Timesheets > Fields > Users > View.
To record an expense, from any of the two above areas, tap and choose the relevant option as described below.
Alternatively, if you want to quickly add an expense to your task without first viewing existing ones, you can also use the Task shortcuts > Add Expense to access these same options.
