Software integrations in travel and expense management

Key principles of an integration:

• Data Synchronisation: Ensures that data is consistently updated across all connected systems.
• Process Automation: Automates routine tasks, such as expense report submissions, approvals, and reimbursements.
• Enhanced Efficiency: Reduces manual data entry and minimises errors by linking systems.
• Customisable Solutions: Allows for tailored integrations to meet specific business needs and workflows.

Example of a software integration:

A company integrates its travel expense management system with its corporate credit card provider.

When employees use their corporate cards for travel expenses, the transaction data is automatically imported into the expense management system. This integration simplifies the expense reporting process, ensures accurate data capture, and speeds up the reconciliation and approval process. See more examples here.

The benefits of an integration:

• Streamline operations - Simplifies and accelerates expense management by automating data flow between systems.
• Reduce errors - Minimises manual entry errors and ensures data consistency.
• Speed up processing - Speeds up expense approvals and reimbursements through automated workflows.
• Enhance insights - Provides comprehensive data visibility and reporting across integrated systems.
