# Posting Behaviour

Pleo does not control or configure posting behaviour.

Each export provides the necessary expense data, and the integration must decide whether entries are created as **draft** or **finalised** in the connected Accounting System.

## Core Principle

Pleo provides:

* Expense data for export

The integration is responsible for:

* Determining posting state (draft or final)
* Mapping to Accounting System posting capabilities
* Applying any business rules related to posting

## Posting Modes

Most Accounting Systems support different posting states. The integration may choose to create:

### Draft Posting

Entries are created as editable records.

Typical characteristics:

* Entries can be reviewed and adjusted
* Changes can be made before final posting
* Often used to reduce risk before committing financial impact

### Finalised Posting

Entries are created as fully posted records.

Typical characteristics:

* Entries are non-editable
* Posting is considered complete
* Financial impact occurs immediately

## Posting Decision

The integration determines posting behaviour based on:

* Integration design choices
* Customer requirements
* Accounting System capabilities

Pleo does not provide or enforce a posting preference.

## Platform Behaviour

* No posting state is defined or enforced by Pleo
* No configuration for posting behaviour exists in Pleo
* Pleo does not validate Accounting System posting rules
* Final posting behaviour is determined during integration execution
