Match Transaction to existing Expense icon;
The Match Transaction page appears.

Unattached Expenses list, select the expense to be matched with the transaction to be approved/verified;

Match to Transaction;
The Verify Expense page appears.

Purpose for the expense, if required;

Gazettals (Optional)).
