Employee advance and repayment

Same subject discussed under this thread, I suggest to merge both discussions and close this one

Employee Advance / Expense Claim - same as "Reimbursement" isn't it?

As per the manual entry The “employee advance” is a tool for providing an Employee with cash before and expense is being made. As far as I understand the internal mechanics of this (also connected to Expanse Claim) thus far the exact same Employee Advance/Expense Claim workflow can be used for Expenses being made by an Employee from his/her own money an being reimbursed to him/her afterwards. Am I missing anything in this regards, or is that correct?
