Small expense claims are approved automatically; claims over $500 go to your finance manager.

Approve expense claims from a Google Form by amount
Every expense claim ends up with the same person reading it, even the $12 taxi. This sends only the larger claims to your finance manager and approves the small ones on the spot.
Each claim is written to your expenses sheet with its decision, and the employee gets an email saying what was decided.
