If you have problems with app installation, please read the question "I cannot install SharePoint app on my SharePoint Site" from our Technical FAQ.

Add an app

The Expense Approval Pro workflow contains four states: Draft, Pending Approval, Approved and Rejected.
Please see below step by step guide to completing the approval process.



1. A user creates a new approval request.
2. The user submits the request for approval ("Send to approve" button).
3. Before request is approved by an approver, the user can make changes to the request form.
4. The approver(s) receives an email notification of the request.
5. The approver(s) approves or declines the approval request.
6. The user receives an email notification of request status (approved or rejected).
7. If the approver(s) approves the request, the process is completed.
8. If the approver(s) rejects the request, the user must edit and resubmit the request, until the approver(s) gives final approval.

As Administrator:
1. Configure display settings (section Administration->Settings)
2. Assign user roles: Manager and Administrator (section Administration->User Roles ). There is no need to assign regular User role, because this role is given by default -every user with access to the Sharepoint parent site (where the app is installed) also has access to this app as regular user.
3. Create or edit request categories (section Administration->Request Categories)
4. Create or edit request templates (section Administration->Request Templates)
General Info tab 
Custom form fields tab 
Custom spreadsheet fields tab 
Subtotals formula tab 

As Regular User:
1. Click "Create new" tile on the main page and submit request.

If you need help with configuration, please watch video guide

The app offers three predefined user roles: Regular user, Manager, and Administrator. .
Each user role has the following permissions.
Actions available to regular employees: 
• Submit new requests
• View and print own requests
• Edit own requests (except requests in Approved status)
• Approve or reject requests waiting for approval (if employee was chosen as approver)*

Actions available to managers:
All actions of regular employees plus:
• Create own request template (via My Request Templates)
• Access to all requests created from own request templates (via My Requests Reports
• Edit approved requests (created from own request templates)
• Grant permission to own requst templates for other managers 

Actions available to administrators:
All actions of regular employees plus:
• Access to all requests and approval templates
• Edit all approved requests 
• Customize system settings
• Define request categories
• Assign user roles

* - depends on system settings

There is no need to assign regular User role, because this role is given by default - every user with access to the SharePoint parent site (where the app is installed) also has access to this app as regular user.

App update process is described here and also on our Technical FAQ, question "How to update SharePoint app?"

User list is pulled from SharePoint User Information List (built-in SharePoint feature, here is more info)
SharePoint user is added to the User Information List after first login to the SharePoint Site.
After first login, user will be visible in the user's drop-down list.

We cannot extend trial period remotely, because app is SharePoint-hosted and our company doesn't have access to the customer's SharePoint env., however you can uninstall an app and install it again to "reset" 14-day period. (this operation removes all app data and configuration).
