Depending on your company setup, your expense goes through a specific approval workflow and receives different status before reaching your finance department. Once your expense is reported, it means it has been included in the accountancy report and a reimbursement can be expected, if it's applicable.
To check where your expense is now, the stages it went through and who is your approver/controller, you can go to History. Simply go to the Expenses tab > click ALL > select an expense > click History.

This section will give you the following details:
Date and Time Stamps
Action Taken
Who did the action
Expense ID
Approver and/or Controller Name.
NOTE: Each expense has a unique Expense ID (ex: XPD123456789). You can use this ID code in the search filter to find your expense quickly.
