ExpenseIn allows you to complete a test to your outbound file delivery destination, by exporting approved expenses or invoices from the Approved section in the Finance area and selecting the File Destination.
Prerequisites
Before completing the test, you must complete the below prerequisites:
Ensure a New Outbound File Delivery setup has been added in the Admin area via Admin > Integrations > File Delivery. Available Options are Email and SFTP.

We also recommend that the Finance users who routinely process approved expenses or invoices from the Finance area complete this test.
