The expense disappears immediately from the expenses list, and there is no mechanism to restore it afterward.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Note:<\/strong> before the deletion is executed, an explicit confirmation dialog appears showing the number of the expense to be deleted and clearly warns that this action cannot be undone.
