Question 490
After a documented finance process change, the original condition was: Expense reports stay in Submitted status because workflow approval roles were changed and no approver is assigned. What should validation demonstrate?
Explanation
Correct Answer
A test expense report routes to an authorized approver, then posts after approval. This directly tests the intended correction: Repair expense approval workflow participant mapping and reassign eligible pending submissions appropriately. The underlying failure or control mechanism is: Expense report workflow identity rules determine who may authorize employee costs.
Incorrect Answers
An eligible half-day trip calculates only the permitted per diem amount. That would verify a different case: A traveler claims a full-day meal per diem on a half-day trip when policy permits only a reduced amount. It does not verify the required corrective action: Repair expense approval workflow participant mapping and reassign eligible pending submissions appropriately.
The reimbursed amount and local accounting amount match the approved rate calculation. That would verify a different case: An employee attaches a receipt but submits a currency conversion with an incorrect reimbursement currency and exchange rate. It does not verify the required corrective action: Repair expense approval workflow participant mapping and reassign eligible pending submissions appropriately.
An over-limit test expense is flagged or blocked while an allowed amount proceeds. That would verify a different case: A receipt reimbursement exceeds the department's maximum hospitality allowance, but the expense report has no policy warning. It does not verify the required corrective action: Repair expense approval workflow participant mapping and reassign eligible pending submissions appropriately.
