After you add an expense, it's possible to delete it. This is useful if one has been added in error.

⚠CAUTION: You can't retrieve a deleted expense. You have to add it again.

📎NOTE: You can't delete an expense on the Sage HR app.

After you log in to the website version of Sage HR, there are two places you can delete an expense from.

Employee profile

Go to your profile (or the employee's profile if you are an admin or manager)
On the profile menu click Expenses, you can see the expense listed under either:
- Unsubmitted
- Awaiting approval
- Awaiting payment
- Completed
The tab they are under depends on what stage the expense is.
Click on the rubbish bin icon next to the expense.
If you don't want the employee to be notified that the expense is deleted, deselect Notify employee by email.
Click Yes, go ahead to confirm you want to delete the expense.

Expense claims report

On the main menu click Reports.
Click Expenses, then click Expense claims.

Here is a list of all the expenses added by all employees.

📌TIP: Use the filters to narrow down the expense you're looking for.
To the right of the relevant expense, click Actions, then on the drop-down click, Delete expense.

📌TIP: Depending on your browser settings, you may have to zoom out or use the scroll bar at the bottom to see the Actions buttons.
If you don't want the employee notified that the expense is deleted, deselect Notify employee by email.
Click Yes, go ahead to confirm you want to delete the expense.
