INFOR EXPENSE MANAGEMENT

Infor Expense Management is used by companies in more than 60 Countries to gain control over employee-initiated spending.

Employee-initiated expenses can account for a surprisingly large percentage of total corporate spending. In challenging economic times, companies that can’t track, analyze, and control these expenditures are missing an important opportunity for cost savings. Consider, for example, the cost of unnecessary travel, unauthorized purchases, unused discounts and rebates, honest expense report errors, and under-billed clients. Other hidden costs can include the time and effort spent on administrative duties related to accounting for expenses and payments, as well as outright fraud. Organizations that gain control over employee-initiated spending and automate expense-related processes can see dramatic benefits to the bottom line.

Leverage Experience

More than just an end-to-end travel expense management solution, Infor™ Expense Management enables employees to plan and expense business travel, request and approve payment requests, capture time for charging to projects and cost centers, and calculate paid time off and overtime. These integrated applications share a single, intuitive interface, making them easy to learn, use, and maintain. With Expense Management, the result is comprehensive control over employee-initiated corporate spending.

Infor’s expense management software allows even complex, multinational organizations to automate expense-related business processes and enforce policy compliance, reducing associated administrative costs and decreasing the opportunity for accidental error and intentional fraud. With it, you can implement instantaneous global updates to policies and processes to support continuous improvement, while simultaneously managing local policies and statutory requirements. Companies like yours also use it to capture information for analysis and benchmarking, identifying spending patterns that can be used to negotiate savings with vendors.

Reports - Visibility and Control

You can dramatically reduce the hassle, time, and cost of creating, approving, and processing expense reports by replacing paper-based tasks with Infor’s web-based, automated system. With Infor Expense Management Reports, you also can gain the visibility and control necessary to meet today’s accounting standards.
Travelers can create and manage expense reports whenever and wherever it’s convenient the office, the airport, even a taxicab with Infor’s offline client. Data entry is simplified when employees use the application’s pre-populated drop-down menus, saving time and eliminating potential errors caused by manually entering data.
Streamlining the process further, Expense Management Reports accepts credit card feeds and uses them to populate expense reports with detailed hotel information (location, room rates, taxes, phone charges, etc.), airline ticket data (ticket number, departure date, destination airport, etc.), and car rental information (location, rental agreement number, pickup date, etc.).
When an email alert arrives in the inbox, the reviewer can open the expense report and any attached supporting documents (receipts, travel plans, etc.) without logging into the application. Because the system integrates with back-end financial systems, no further data entry is required once you approve the expense report. Accounting can issue reimbursements in a fraction of the time it used to take because policy checking was completed up front.
