Example expense report

When it is complete, the business expense application will enable its users to do the following:

• Select an employee name from a database to generate an expense report for

• Add or delete business expenses in the UI

• Display on the UI the information that will be included in the report

• Generate a printer-formatted preview of the report

• Print the report

Note:

You may need to create and connect to a sample database as described in Appendix A, Installing an ODBC text database.
