# Expenses, advances and petty cash

*Staff expense claims, cash advances and petty-cash spending.*

Staff submit expense claims with their receipts attached. Approvers review them from the Inbox, and approved claims post to the ledger, ready to be paid.

**Advances**

Record a travel or cash advance against an employee, then settle it against the claims they submit.

**Petty cash**

Record small office spending as petty-cash vouchers, each with its receipt attached, and keep IOUs for cash handed out before the receipt comes back.
