EECEXPENSE FILE Expense Interface The Expense Interface file is used by the Expense Interface program to interface employee expense records from a desktop application or a non-Lawson system to the Lawson Employee Expense system. When you run EE520 (Expense Interface), the system reads records in this file for interface into the Employee Expense file and, for released status expenses, into the Accounts Payable Invoice file. When the Expense Interface file records are successfully interfaced, they are purged from this file. You can use EE52.1 (Expense Update) to add records to this file or maintain records already loaded into this file before interfacing the records. Expense records with an open status must have one or more corresponding records in the Expense Distribution Interface file.
