It is a common practice that an employee is always advanced some cash for a business trip or for repair of vehicle.When the transaction has been carried out by the staff he makes retirement.If he over spent he collects the cash balance (claim) but if he spent less,he surrenders the cash balance.
Expense claim in ERPNEXT particularly in reference to Fleet management will be unusable account wse because no staff spends his money to fuel and maintain vehicle to be refunded later.Staff Account Receivable should be select-able which presently is not possible
To make it reflect real life situation,claims should be made settle-able by advance to a staff.

You can use Expense Claim as a work-around for imprest management as well.
