The Travel &
Entertainment System is an expense accounting management system. The system
is used by employees to report their expenses. Its purpose is to solve the
business problem by processing expenses quickly and efficiently.
The goal of the T&E System is to make all aspects of the
expense reporting process less time consuming, less complicated and less
isolated from the corporate accounting system while enhancing accuracy and
control. Each employee of the company will be able to keep track of and
document their own expense reports. In some cases, an administrative employee
will process the expense reports of others as a delegate. Depending on the
Security Level of the employee, there will be a variety of different functions
at their disposal. The different types of System Users can be viewed in the
list to the right.
The high level functions of the Travel & Entertainment are
to collect expenses, allocate those expenses, submit expenses for approval,
integrate approved expenses into the accounting system and then store those
expense reports for future reference.
