Bottomless expense approvals

Feature: Custom approval flows for every possible use case

Description: A project brings together employees from different departments or entities and consists of a project manager who generally decides the project’s spend limits. So why should an employee’s department head be responsible for approving expenses filed by employees during the tenure of the project? On itilite, it’s easy to add a different approver for every possible combination of employee, department, entity, spend category, spend limit and project. In fact, every active user on the platform can become an approver. Don’t limit yourself, be bottomless!

More options for hotel payments

Feature: Postpaid hotel options

Description: Hotels are generally classified into 2 categories – “Prepaid” – paid by employee or company before check-in and “Postpaid” – paid by employee directly at the hotel during check-out. You can now book hotels from this expanded category of postpaid hotels on itilite. The implications are that your company now has multiple payment options for hotels and higher chances of getting loyalty membership points on hotel bookings. These are visible on every hotel listing as “Pay Now”, “Bill to Company” and “Pay at hotel”.

You can create multiple file templates for your ERP by choosing from 100+ expense fields on the system. Simply, select the fields you need as columns, preview your tables and start uploading/sending those custom files to your ERP when you want to pay out!

Approve trips by projects, not just departments

Feature: Project-based approvals

Description: If you’re a company that has teams that travel for different projects, where an approval of the project is required for traveling, then this feature is a game-changer for you. While you can set approvals by department already on ITILITE, you can now set approvals by adding project codes. Once added, approvals could then be triggered to specific project managers or even teams working in different departments, entities or even different companies where your project is based.

Change management made extremely easy

Feature: Unified User Management for Travel and Expense

Description: Change is the only constant at companies. Employees get promoted, they switch departments, business units and even entities. Their roles too change sometimes and maybe there is a new finance admin on the block! It’s cumbersome to go for each minor change to your travel/expense provider. It’s much easier to just toggle switches from a single screen on ITILITE for both travel and expense together. So do that!

Close books faster and reimburse expenses on time
