Expenses and spend

The spend preset is for an app in the style of Ramp or Expensify. A member files an expense report with its receipts, the category's spend policy checks it on submit, an approver decides it, and the reimbursement is paid through the ledger.

import { defineConfig } from "better-supabase/config";

export default defineConfig({ preset: "spend" });

npx better-supabase init --preset spend starts a new project from it, and npx better-supabase apply --preset spend adds it to one you have (CLI).

The preset is saas plus these blocks, and whatever they require:

The expenses block posts on the ledger, which the preset installs as one of its requirements.

How the blocks connectCopy Anchor Link

submit checks each line against its category's spend policy, then the report waits on its approval. When the approval is final, each category's total posts on its expense account against the member's payable account, and reimburse settles the payable account from expense cash. Each posting has a key per report, so it can't post twice, and what the organization owes a member is a ledger balance (expenses).
