Workflow based Expenses Management
Package intranet-expenses-workflow provides a preconfigured workflow that lets users bundle single expenses to an expense bundle.

Users are now allowed to create "Expense Bundles" that may consist of one ore more expenses.
Once the expense bundle has been created, the users supervisor receives a new task in his "Workflow Home Inbox".
The supervisor of the employee as set up in http://[YOUR_SERVER]/intranet/users/view?user_id=xxxx
either approves or denies the request for reimbursement.
Only if the request for reimbursement is approved by the users supervisor, expenses are added to the "Expense" row on the projects "Financial Summary".
