Invoices and expense claims

E-invoices, travel requests and employee expense claims.

The module digitises the internal circuit of financial documents: receiving and processing supplier invoices, including automatic capture from the national e-invoicing system, along with requests for official travel, travel orders and employees' expense claims. Every document passes through a workflow of checking, sign-off, payment authorisation and approval, with a full audit trail.

The expense claim: the travel period, the expenses in detail and the initial, final and internal documents.

What changes in the internal financial circuit

An invoice arriving through e-invoicing enters the checking and sign-off workflow by itself, and the travel order and the claim are filled in once — with no printed forms carried between offices for signatures.

Invoices enter the workflow by themselvesAutomatic import from e-invoicing, with the XML and structured data
The travel order is generatedFrom the request, regenerated on any change
Every step leaves evidenceAn audit trail with user, date, previous and new status

Native integrations

The financial circuit connects to e-invoicing, to contracts, to the budget and to human resources.

The national e-invoicing system, through an access token managed in the platform
The Contracts and Procurement modules, for linking invoices to contracts and procedures
The Budget module, for committing and paying amounts against budget lines
The Human resources module, for employee data and reconciliation with travel assignments

Part of the same platform

Invoices and expense claims is not a separate application. It uses the same records registry, the same documents and the same signing, notification and audit mechanisms as every other module.

How to get started

You don't have to digitise the whole institution at once.

START ONE

You start directly with this module: Invoices and expense claims, the internal portal and the tools it needs to run.

START PRO + INVOICES AND EXPENSE CLAIMS

If you already have the digital foundation — records registry, documents, workflows — the module is activated on top of it, with no migration.
