How it runs

The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

  • LogicFilter to items now exceeding their approval threshold
  • OutputEmail drifted-expense alert with old vs. new valuesOutlook

What it does

Foreign-currency expenses approved days ago can cross a policy threshold purely from exchange-rate movement before reimbursement clears. This job re-prices all pending expenses at today's rate, compares the new base-currency value to its approval threshold, and surfaces any that now exceed it so finance can re-review before paying out.

When to use it

Use this when there's a meaningful gap between approval and payout and you reimburse at the settlement-date rate. It catches expenses that were compliant at approval but are no longer in policy after FX drift, protecting against silent over-reimbursement.

How it works

  1. 1A schedule fires the daily revaluation run.
  2. 2A Snowflake query pulls all approved-but-unpaid multi-currency expenses with their original amounts and thresholds.
  3. 3An HTTP call fetches current FX rates and re-prices each expense to today's base-currency value.
  4. 4A filter keeps only items whose revalued amount now exceeds its approval threshold.
  5. 5An Outlook alert lists the drifted expenses with old vs. new values for re-review.
