Expense Policy Enforcement

Do you have users who forget to submit receipts? With Expense Policy Enforcement, you can now limit spending on the card until tasks like these are completed. 

Please note: You can only enable Expense Policy rules when you use Emburse Cards as a standalone product. If you integrate with other Emburse products including: Certify, Abacus, Nexonia, Spend, Chrome River, Tallie, and Captio. You will not have the option to set expense policy rules in Emburse Cards. Your expense policies will be configured in those sister accounts.

When a task is overdue, set a time period for when a task needs to be completed. If the task is not completed by that set time period, the spending on the card will be restricted to an amount you set. It can be restricted to $0 to limit all spending on cards until the task is completed.
