Can you have a negative expense claim?

The scenario is: One of our employees owes us an amount. We owe him in excess of that via his expense claims. He would like us to offset the small amount against his current expense claim.

@HeatherSmithAU -- Let us know if you have follow up questions! I'm happy to break it down a little though.
- Employee adds positive reimbursable expenses to their report
- Employee adds a negative reimbursable expense (for the amount they needs to pay back) to the report as well.
- The negative reimbursable expense is automatically subtracted from the positive reimbursable total of the report.
- You will reimburse the employee for the reimbursable total minus the amount they are paying back to the company.
Cheers!

Thanks Sheena - what about if you don't have a positive reimbursable expense to net against? I wish you could have a negative report, that then gets sent to our accounting system as a Credit Note.
