Expense Pre-Audit: One-Tap Fix Request Back to the Employee
When a flagged expense report has missing receipts or out-of-policy items, this drafts a specific.

- ActionEmail fix request to submitting employeeOutlook
- OutputLog outstanding request as Awaiting EmployeeAirtable
What it does
Closes the loop on flagged reports. Instead of a reviewer manually writing 'please fix line 3,' the flow generates a precise fix request listing each problem item and what's needed (a receipt, a justification, or a corrected amount), emails it to the submitter, and records the outstanding request so it can be chased.
When to use it
Use this after a pre-audit step has already flagged a report and you want the correction request to go out instantly and consistently, with the same professional tone every time.
How it works
- 1A flagged-report event (from your pre-audit table or upstream flow) triggers the run.
- 2The flow gathers every flagged line item and its specific deficiency.
- 3An OpenAI step drafts a clear, itemized fix request with a reply-by date and the policy reason for each item.
- 4The request is emailed to the submitting employee from the finance mailbox via Outlook.
- 5The outstanding fix request is logged to Airtable with status Awaiting Employee so reviewers can track and escalate.
