– Commercial Finance Manager
The challenge
-
Lack of spend visibility: line managers needed to see the status of their teams’ expense claims.
-
Lack of automated approval reports for expenses that are more than 4 weeks old: resulting in delays in approval cycles, lack of accountability, and potential for uncontrolled spending.
-
Manual integrations: they required a solution that could seamlessly integrate with Sage 50.
-
Inflexible spending limits on their corporate cards: with their previous expense management provider, users had to spend a certain limit overwise they couldn’t submit an expense claim.
The solution
-
Real-time expense analytics: empowering line managers with instant access to detailed reports on their teams’ expense claims, ensuring they have the visibility needed to monitor and manage expenditures effectively.
-
Automated reports sent out to the finance team: providing timely notifications for expenses pending approval for over 4 weeks, streamlining the approval process, enhancing accountability, and reducing the risk of uncontrolled spending.
-
Effortless ERP integration: Capture Expense facilitated a seamless integration with Sage 50.
-
**Flexible spending limits: **line managers have to ability to set individual spending limits so they are in full control over how much an employee can or can’t claim back on expenses.
