Add expense to report
Puts an existing expense of yours on a draft report.
MCP tool expensify_write → add_expense_to_report
write
Adds one of your own expenses to a Draft report and returns the new total. Only expenses in your own account can be added, and an expense that is on hold is accepted but will move to a new Draft report if you submit with unheld ones. It reaches no one and can be undone in Expensify, so it does not wait for your OK.
