2 . detail report - do not send this report to accounting ( it has no bar code ) . this report is more appropriate for the traveler or the person that prepares the report in case they would like to keep a paper copy .
? once you have printed the receipt report and attached the receipts , you must send all expense reports in the white a / p envelope with the open slot at the right hand corner ( the bar code must be seen through this slot ) .
