Submission policies allow you to create and enforce guidelines around what information is required for your Teams’ expenses within Float. These policies can be customized based on specific teams and expenses such as travel, onboarding, benefits, etc. Submission Policies are part of Float’s Expense Policy feature which allows you to implement your company’s expense guidelines within Float.
Please note: Multiple policies are only available for Professional Plan users. Essential plan customers will only have access to a single default submission policy! To upgrade your plan, please message support@floatcard.com
How this impacts your users:
- Admins will be able to set whether receipts or GL codes are required and enforce how many transactions can have missing information before a card is paused. As well, Admins will be able to apply specific GL codes to individual policies.
- Spenders will have the ability to select the submission policy that best represents their spend request as well as apply their own GL code to their transactions.
