Charges on a company Card under $500 go through and get coded. Anything larger becomes an Approval with the vendor and receipt attached.

What you get

1Approval to you for each charge over $500, with the vendor and the receiptApproval

You, to your agent

Card charges under $500 are fine without me.

Chase missing receipts after a week.

Code every card charge to an account.

# 1. Process.enable
curl -X POST https://api.sb/leaseline.app/processes/process_expense_approval/enable \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $STARTUP_BUILDER_API_KEY"

# 2. Setting.update
curl -X PATCH https://api.sb/leaseline.app/settings/setting_1 \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $STARTUP_BUILDER_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"value":{"amount":500,"currency":"USD"},"key":"spend.askAbove"}'

import { $ } from 'startup-builder'

await $.Process.enable({ process: 'process_expense_approval' })
await $.Setting.update({ id: 'setting_1', value: { amount: 500, currency: 'USD' }, key: 'spend.askAbove' })

npx startup-builder do Process.enable --json '{"process":"process_expense_approval"}'
npx startup-builder do Setting.update --json '{"id":"setting_1","value":{"amount":500,"currency":"USD"},"key":"spend.askAbove"}'

{
  "name": "do",
  "arguments": {
    "code": "await $.Process.enable({ process: 'process_expense_approval' })\nreturn await $.Setting.update({ id: 'setting_1', value: { amount: 500, currency: 'USD' }, key: 'spend.askAbove' })"
  }
}

Set the line where your attention is worth more than the money. At $500 a founder sees a few charges a month, not every coffee. For an Agent spending on its own Mandate, see what agents spend.
