iExpense Legacy Process
Employee logs into iExpense and submits Expense Reports Employee gets a failure notification if the employee manager is not
found in the approval setup Employee raises a ticket Functional Analyst analyzes the issue Functional Analyst Redirect employee to contact HR to get the
Cost Center and Manager info Employee contacts HR dept to furnish this information Functional Analyst gets the Approval Matrix Information and sets

iExpense Maintenance Nightmare
Maintenance Nightmare– The ER volume makes it a maintenance nightmare – Manual Intervention for ERs returned because of setup– Results in loss of Productivity for HR/Finance as they have to
intervene to do the Approval Setup– End user frustrated as the payment gets delayed
Slide # 6
The Solution
Selected Workflow Changes over Scheduled Job Added a new custom function in Workflow to add/update the
Approval Limits if required Approval Limits are added to all required Supervisors in the HR
hierarchy Approval Limit gets updated if there is change in the Limits Approval Limits are read from Requisition Approval Limits Requisition Approval Limits are tied to Job Level of Person

The Solution
Requisition Approval Limits are tied to Job Level of Person – How do we maintain these?– 4000 Job Titles– 10 Job Levels (e.g. Yahoo! Global 30, 40…)– Requisition Approval Limit is based on the Job Level– Custom form to maintain these Limits– Any change triggers of Process to update the Requisition Approval
