Similar to the custom expense fields in Payhawk, you can assign one or more managers to your expense categories. You can later use the Category manager role to build custom workflows that will meet your company's requirements and filter your expenses per pending approval step and approver.

  1. In the Payhawk web portal, go to Settings > Expense fields.

  2. Under the Built-in fields section, click on Categories.

  3. Under the Values tab, select the category for which you want to assign an employee as its manager.

  4. In the dialog that opens, from the Category manager drop-down, select the employees you want to assign as the category managers.

  5. When done, click on Save.
