Page Layouts

In Zoho Expense, you can select the fields that appear for your employees while creating a trip or an expense based on their policies and categories.

Using Page Layouts, you will be able to enable fields, set default values, add hints, and mark fields as mandatory for the different types of teams and categories in your organization.

For example, the sales team in your organization might deal with fields such as business purpose and the name of the customer they’re visiting while creating a trip. These fields may not be applicable to the Research and Development department in your organization. In Zoho Expense, you can choose to disable or enable these fields for your employees based on their policy and category.

Similarly, you will be able to create similar page layouts for different policies and departments based on your organization’s needs in Zoho Expense.
