Post expenses in accounting
===========================
Once an expense report is approved, the next step is to post the report to the accounting journal.
To view all expense reports, go to :menuselection:`Expenses app --> Expense Reports`. To view only
the expense reports that have been approved and need to be posted, adjust the filters on the left
side so that only the :guilabel:`Approved` status is enabled.

Just like approvals, expense reports can be posted in two ways (individually or several at once). To
post multiple expense reports at once, remain in the list view. First, select the reports to post by
ticking the checkbox next to each report, or tick the checkbox next to :guilabel:`Employee` to
select all the reports in the list. Next, click :guilabel:`Post Entries`.

To post an individual report, click on a report to go to the detailed view of that report. In this
view, several options are presented: :guilabel:`Post Journal Entries`, :guilabel:`Report In Next
Payslip`, :guilabel:`Refuse`, or :guilabel:`Reset to Draft`. Click :guilabel:`Post Journal Entries`
to post the report.
If :guilabel:`Refuse` is clicked, a pop-up window appears. Enter a brief explanation for the refusal
in the :guilabel:`Reason to Refuse Expense` field, and then click :guilabel:`Refuse`. Refused
reports can be viewed by going to :menuselection:`Expenses app --> Expense Reports`, then adjusting
the filters on the left so that only :guilabel:`Refused` is selected. This will only show the
refused expense reports.
