Expense ID - This column correlates to the Expense Report ID in NaturalHR, not to be confused with the Expense Item ID which is used to identify each line of an expense claim. This column is mandatory.

Comments - This column is also down to the user to decide on, it can be used if there is anything of note on the expense claim, for instance, if the claim is for £20.00 but the attached receipt shows £15.50 the comment might be "£15.50 paid as receipt states £15.50". This column is optional.
