Process Q&A

Ask how any internal process works (expense approvals, PTO requests, deployment steps) and get a clear answer that cites the exact procedure it came from, without pinging the one person who happens to know.

Using our documented processes in the Knowledge Center, answer how-to questions from the team. Start with: how do I submit an expense report for a client dinner over the limit? Cite the procedure and section your answer comes from.

This comes from the Expense & Reimbursement Policy (v4, updated May 2026) in the Knowledge Center, plus the Manager Approval Matrix it references. A client dinner over the per-head limit is covered, with one extra approval step.

A client dinner counts as billable meals & entertainment, so it follows the standard expense flow with one added approval because it's over the limit.

  • Itemize it. Enter the expense as Meals: Client Entertainment, attach the itemized receipt, and list every attendee and their company (Expense & Reimbursement Policy, Section 3.2).
  • Note the business purpose. One line on what the dinner was for and the account or deal it supports, required for anything client-facing (Section 3.4).
  • Flag the overage. The per-head limit for dinner is $75. Anything above it needs your manager's sign-off and a second approval from the budget owner for that account (Section 5.1, and the Manager Approval Matrix, row "Meals over limit").

Once both approvals are in, reimbursement is released in the next payroll run, usually within two weeks (Section 6.3). If the dinner ran over $150 per head, Finance also asks for a short written justification before releasing it (Section 5.2).

Want me to list the approval steps for expenses over $150 per head, or pull the receipt requirements for international meals?

From question to cited answer

Process Q&A lets anyone ask how a process works in plain language and get an answer grounded in your own documented procedures. Joy, the JoySuite assistant, reads the relevant procedure at ask time and replies with the steps, plus a citation to where it found them.

  1. Add your procedures

    Upload SOPs, policies, and how-to guides to the Knowledge Center, or connect the wiki where they already live. Joy indexes the full text so it can find the right passage.

  2. Ask in plain language

    Anyone on the team asks Joy how a process works, in their own words. No need to know which document holds the answer or what it's titled.

  3. Get a cited answer

    Joy replies with the steps that apply and cites the exact procedure and section, so the person can open the source and confirm before acting.

  4. Refine and use it

    Ask a follow-up to narrow the case ('what if it's over the limit?') then copy the answer into your reply, ticket note, or wherever you're working.

  5. Make it one click for your team

    Save this ask as a custom command on the assistant your team already uses, so anyone can run it in one step.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from searching our wiki?

Search returns a list of documents to read; Process Q&A reads the relevant procedure for you and answers the specific question, citing the section it used so you can confirm. You ask in plain language instead of guessing keywords.

Where do the answers come from?

Only from the procedures and policies you've added to the Knowledge Center or connected. Joy reads them at the moment you ask and won't invent steps that aren't documented. If the answer isn't on file, it tells you.

What happens when a process changes?

Update the source document and the next answer reflects it. There's no separate FAQ to maintain, so people never get steered by a stale copy.

Can we control who sees which answers?

Yes. Role-based permissions scope answers to the documents each person is allowed to read, so sensitive procedures stay with the right audience.

Where can people ask?

In the chat interface your team already uses. People ask on demand and get an answer back. There's nothing scheduled and no standing presence to manage; the answer comes when someone asks.
