expense reports and bank register

Feature Goal

Things to consider

22

• Questions before starting

• Are your employee’s entering expense reports right now?

• Do you want employee’s to import their own credit card items from the bank?

• Do you have multiple credit cards set up from a single financial institution? For

example, each employee has a Chase card and those are all set up as individual

credit cards in Ajera.

• Do you have a single credit card set up in Ajera and assign it to multiple employees?

• Will you be importing information for more than one employee at once?

• What does the file look like when you download it from the bank?

» Employees enter and submit expense reports

» Supervisors and Accounting approve expense reports. Expense report gets

processed

» Employee edits processed expense report triggering Re-approval process

» Vendor Invoice is put on hold

» Accounting (or Supervisor if Accounting Approvals not turned on) reapproves the

expense report

» Vendor Invoice is taken off hold


» Two new columns added to

the Expense report list

» Needs reapproval gets

checked when employee

edits his own processed

expense report

» Reapproved gets checked

when

Supervisor/Accounting re-

approve a processed

expense report, which has

been edited by an

employee

Re-approval process


» When an expense report is

marked for Reapproval, the

related vendor invoice

automatically gets marked with

an On hold status.

» On hold status invoices cannot

be paid

» As soon as

supervisor/accounting

reapproves the expense report,

the On hold status gets

removed

» Ajera database size

» Ajera transaction processes & integrity

» Overall Ajera performance

» SQL Filestream allows Ajera to point from the record in Ajera to the attachment in the Filestreamdatabase

» Ajera is taking advantage of what SQL currently offers

» What type of attachments are supported?

» Prints uploaded attachments from Vendor Invoices, In House Expense and Expense Reports that are associated with the invoice
