Internet Explorer Access to Chrome River

As a reminder, due to Microsoft’s sunset of Internet Explorer last year, Chrome River will be fully sunsetting the browser on June 22, 2022 to align with Microsoft’s end-of-life schedule.  At that time, users who attempt to log in to Chrome River via Internet Explorer will see an error message. 

Add Expense Button

Chrome River has created a new ADD EXPENSE button that appears whenever the line item list or the report is empty, allowing users to communicate to approvers that there are no line items yet.
