1. From Workday home page, Click on your Inbox.

2. Click on the Expense Report, then change the view so that you can see details of report.



3. From this view you can see all details on expense report. Verify the charges.



4. At the bottom of the screen, you have the option to choose Approve, Send Back, and if you hover over the dots, you will see Deny.

5. Choose Send Back if you think something needs to be changed on the report. You will see this screen: the names that appear are the person that created the report and the person from accounting who reviewed and approved.



6. Choose the person you are sending it back to and enter an explanation for return. Click Submit.

It will be sent to that person for editing.
