+
+Enable the **Prohibited expenses** rule to automatically flag receipts containing restricted purchases like alcohol, gambling, or tobacco. This rule uses Expensify’s AI-powered SmartScan to detect violations at the line-item level and notify admins for review.
+
+# Prohibited Expense Rule
+
+The Prohibited expenses rule allows Workspace Admins to enforce compliance by flagging receipts that contain restricted items. SmartScan analyzes individual line items and applies violations when prohibited categories are detected.
+
+## How it works
+
+Once enabled, this rule uses AI to review receipt line items during SmartScan. If a prohibited item is found, the expense is flagged for review.
+
+- Available in both Expensify Classic and New Expensify.
+- Configuration is only available in New Expensify.
+- Automatically flags receipts for manual review by a Workspace Admin or approver.
+
+## How to enable the rule
+
+To turn on the Prohibited expenses rule:
+
+1. Go to **Settings** > **Workspaces** > click _Workspace Name_ > **Rules** > **Expenses**.
+2. Scroll to the section titled **Prohibited expenses**.
+3. Toggle on the rule.
+4. Select the prohibited categories you want to monitor:
+   - Adult entertainment
+   - Alcohol
+   - Gambling
+   - Hotel incidentals
+   - Tobacco
+
+**Note:** This rule is disabled by default. Admins must enable it and choose which categories to apply.
+
+## What happens when a prohibited item is detected?
+
+If a SmartScan detects a prohibited item:
+
+- A violation is added to the expense.
+- The expense displays the messages:
+  - `"Receipt Issue Found"`
+  - `"Prohibited expense: Alcohol"` (or the relevant flagged category).
+- The expense requires manual review by the approver.

+
+# FAQ
+
+## Who can enable the Prohibited expenses rule?
+
+Only Workspace Admins can enable or adjust this rule in New Expensify.
+
+## Will violations appear in Expensify Classic?
+
+Yes. Even though configuration is handled in New Expensify, violations appear in both **Expensify Classic** and **New Expensify** when viewing expenses.
+
+If the Domain Group setting, **Strictly enforce expense workspace rules** is enabled, it will block the submission of the expense with the prohibited item violation. 
+
+## Will SmartScan still work if the rule is off?
+
+Yes. SmartScan will still extract the merchant, date, and amount. However, it will not flag line items for violations unless the rule is enabled.
+
+## Is this rule part of SmartScan?
+
+Yes. Once enabled, the rule works seamlessly with SmartScan to detect prohibited line items in all scanned receipts.
