What will happen if an expense limit or rate is left inactive?

When an expense limit or rate is left inactive, it is no longer in effect and therefore cannot be applied at all. This means that regardless of any conditions or scenarios that might typically utilize that expense limit or rate, it will be completely disregarded in calculations or applications within the system.

Inactive expense limits or rates serve as a way to manage options within the application without needing to delete them entirely, but they do not have any impact on relevant transactions while they remain inactive. This approach allows administrators to retain the historical context and potential future relevance of such limits or rates without risking their unintended application.

Active limits or rates, on the other hand, would be enforceable and impactful in expense reporting, thereby highlighting the significance of ensuring that relevant expense policies are properly activated if they are intended to be used.
