Reorder items in expenses report
Expense seems to order items in an expenses report in an not entirely obvious way, and not related to the order in which expenses were recorded (aside from grouping items by date). It would be good to be able to re-order items to make the expenses report look more logical (e.g. Lunch before dinner, taxi to the departure airport before taxi from arrival airport) and thus to present the expenses in the order in which they occurred. This would make reports much easier to review and approve for managers. Thanks!

Absolutely true.
Another way to check the expenses in a report for approval is by category.
During the approval process, I need to be able to check the expenses by categories. To me it looks like I only have this option once the report is finalized, but not during approval. Seeing all hotel expenses together, the trains, cars, taxi, etc, makes it easier to actually understand what exactly was spent, make sure there are not too many lets say breakfasts in a report for the same trip etc. -

Totally agree. Checking expense claims both for the originator prior to submission and for the reviewer post submission is a lot more efficient if the expenses are presented in the order in which they were incurred. Manual reordering is supported for itemised expense entries so why not also for expenses within a report?

Absolutely. Need to be able to at least sort by date incurred instead of having them appear in the order entered from the receipts inbox, or whatever weird order they're in now.
