My job as a project manager for an electrical contracting firm requires to sometimes purchase materials on a cash basis and will be reimbursed by my company. In doing so on an out of town job, I purchased numerous items, turned in the original receipts but when I was terminated I have not been paid for these items. I have discussed the issue with my former supervisor who had told me to turn these in, he said he reviewed them and all items were justified. I have sent a letter about the reimbursements without reply. This company is in Texas- San Antonio, how should I proceed, and what is the likely outcome? The first item list was turned in 3 weeks prior to my termination for $200, and the 2nd one was turned in 2 days after my termination for $700. I was not paid for a vacation due me but the local labor board says the company does not have to pay me for that. The reimbursement is standard practice for all employees and I have been repaid for these type of cash transactions previously without question. I have retained copies of the receipts for further action as required.

If you feel you have exhausted all 'normal' processes of resolution, your only remaining one is to file a lawsuit, presumably small claims.

and what is the likely outcome?
No one can answer that without a COMPLETE review of all the facts.

As you discovered, Texas does not require payment of unused vacation... so that issue is not relevant.
