Implementation Guide

Template for matching manually entered expenses against OCR-parsed receipts to reduce approvals friction. Uses fuzzy merchant matching, date tolerance windows, and amount thresholds to auto-suggest matches and flag exceptions. Generates approval batches, receipts-to-expense links, and policy-violation highlights (per-diem limits, missing receipts). Can be integrated with an OCR export (.csv) and built-in macro to mark approved batches for finance upload.
