Approvals by expense submitter
It would be very useful to be able to set up an Approval Workflow based on the user who has submitted the expense.
In some situations a manager of a department needs to approve the charges one of their team has made. There may be 5 receipts from Staples in Dext, but as a manager I only need to approve the Staples purchase that was made by MY admin, not the staples purchases made by other departments. Therefore, being able to set up an approval workflow that includes the submitter would separate out the Staples purchase that needs my attention from the other Staples purchases that have been submitted.

Hi all,
We recently released the ability to set up approval workflows based on the document owner of the item. You can now do this across all document types (costs, sales and expense claims).
Go to business settings to adjust your approval workflow settings and feel free to email me directly if you have any more questions.
Enjoy!

Add more options for approvers on expense claims - being able to set expense claim approver by Submitter and tracking category / project would be extremely helpful.

Love the expense workflows. I'd love to see exceptions. e.g. if a certain manager submits something it skips the workflow. Seems silly that a manager submits the receipt and then has to "request approval" then go and approve of their own expense.
