The expense management process is crucial for businesses, involving tracking employee expenses, detecting fraudulent claims, and ensuring compliance with company policies. A well-defined expense approval process helps companies save costs, increase cash flow visibility, and improve resource allocation. However, traditional post-expense approval processes can be time-consuming, prone to errors, and vulnerable to fraud. To streamline this process, companies are adopting automation tools, such as OCR-enabled receipt scanning apps, data extraction tools, automated workflows, and spend management software. These technologies enable real-time expense visibility, automate approvals, and reduce the risk of non-reimbursements, ultimately leading to a more efficient and compliant expense approval process.
