7. What is Workflow ? E lectronic routing of expense reports and approvals with email notification

8. How does it Work? E-Mail Notification e-mail is an important tool for e-Reimbursement users. e-Reimbursement uses e-mail notification to indicate to travelers, approvers, and auditors where the expense report and/or travel authorization is in the workflow queue. For example, when the traveler clicks on the "Submit" button, emails are sent to notify the approver that the expense report is ready for approval and so on. Junkmail Unfamiliar e-mail is sometimes sent to a user's junk mailbox because the user and, under some circumstances the e-mail system administrator, has set up e-mail filters. Because e-mail is used as a communication device in e-Reimbursement, be sure to adjust your e-mail settings to allow the e-mail messages from e-Reimbursement to reach your inbox. E-mail that is stuck in a junk mailbox and is not noticed, will delay payment of the expense reimbursement. 8
