Employee Management Systems (#113)

In this podcast episode, we discuss the benefits of using a computerized expense reporting system. Key points made are:

  • Employee spend management reduces the time required to submit expense reports by automating the entire process.

  • These systems automate data entry, automatically reconcile expense reports, and can reimburse employees.

  • Employees can access these systems using a mobile phone, which is also used to take pictures of receipts.

  • The payment system can be linked to your travel itinerary, and can automatically capture your credit card charges.

  • The exact solution chosen will depend on the size and structure of the company, and whether employees engage in international travel.

  • The system may need to be adjusted to account for the company’s travel policies.
