Description of problem:
There is no option to add a condition based on budget check results in the either the expense report or expense report auto posting workflows, meaning that it is possible to submit, approve and auto-post an expense claim without seeing any budget check warnings. The workflow should behave the same way as for purchase orders and accounts payable invoice journals and provide the ability to route to a specific member of staff it the available budget is exceeded.
Repro steps:
1. Configure budget control for a specific ledger account;
2. Enter an expense claim, with a line mapped to the ledger account from step 1 above. Ensure amount exceeds budget;
3. Submit Expense claim to workflow;
4. Approve claim;
5. Auto-post using workflow.
In this scenario, because there is no budget check component in the workflow, the process completes.
We would like to see a budget check feature in the workflow for the Expense transactions
