Monthly expense claims

The month’s expense claims are checked, decided and booked, with missing receipts sent back and the items the fund may bear under the LPA flagged.

PlanMonthly expense claims

  1. Review every claim

    Held

    Operator checks each claim for missing receipts, duplicates and policy limits, flags what the fund may bear under the LPA with the clause, and drafts the entries.

The plan as it runs: each step waits for the one before it, and stops at its gate until the owner approves.

Ask Operator

Start it in a sentence

Ask Operator in chat. It drafts the plan for your fund, and nothing runs until you release it.

  • You

    Close out October’s expense claims.

  • You

    Approve the team’s clean expenses and send back the ones without receipts.

  • You

    Which of this month’s expenses can we charge to the fund?

The outcome

Every claim this month is approved, sent back with a reason or left with you, and every approved claim is booked to the right ledger.

What it proves

  • Reads every claim and cites the LPA clause for anything the fund may bear.
  • Returns, approves and books nothing until you have reviewed the flags.
  • Approves every clean claim in one go, and brings back one that was edited since.
  • Books each claim to the management company or the fund, as the LPA allows.
  • Waits three business days for fixed claims without anyone watching.
  • Shows each team member only their own claims; you see all of them.
