When you cannot edit or delete

Expenses are locked once they move past the Unreported stage. Here is a summary:

Status Can edit? Can delete?
Draft Yes Yes
Unreported Yes Yes
Reported Limited No
Submitted No No
Approved No No
Reimbursed No No
Rejected Yes Yes

Note: Rejected expenses return to an editable state. You can fix the issue and resubmit them.

Correcting approved expenses

If an approved expense contains an error, you cannot edit it directly. Instead, request an amendment. Amendments let you correct details, adjust amounts, void an expense, or split it: all while preserving a full audit trail.

See Expense amendments for details.
