# Expenses: Submitting for approval

This article covers submitting your draft expenses for approval in both the web and mobile versions of Expenses.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note**: You cannot recall a submitted expense yourself. You will either need to contact your finance team, or ask your approver to reject the expense so you can then edit/delete it.

### Submitting a single claim for approval (web)

1. Click **Expenses** in the side menu.
2. In the **Draft** tab, select an expense, and check all its details are correct.
