Have a smooth trip with Certify

Imagine you're a traveling employee, out on a business trip, eating a meal with an important colleague. The meal is wrapping up, and you've got another appointment to get to in short order. You quickly grab the receipt for the food, and sprint out the door to your next meeting. Unfortunately you realize later that night that, in your haste, you'd misplaced that ever-so-small sheet of paper.

So now, you have a number of problems to deal with: You have no documentation of the meeting having taken place, nor can you be reimbursed for the money you spent on the meal itself. Your whole day was made more stressful and more challenging by the need to collect the receipt - it's one of many documents that you had to obtain, file away and enter data from during your day. Now that you can't find it, your business trip is made worse by yet another complication.

You could still file the expense with your company - but you run the risk that you'll report an incorrect expense, violating policy. Alternatively, you could ignore the expense entirely as a result of losing the receipt, but then you'd find yourself missing out on a significant amount of money simply because an incredibly small piece of paper slipped out of your grasp. When you're reporting your expenses manually, a lost scrap of paper isn't just a minor inconvenience - it's a major hassle.

Make life easier with the help of automated expense reporting technology

There's one simple way to prevent that major hassle: by having your company invest in automated expense report software, such as the program offered by Certify. With our software, your employees will never have to file or handle a physical receipt everything again: Certify allows you to go digital. Our ReceiptParse technology makes it possible for your employees to simply take pictures of the receipts listing their expenses, instead of having to obtain and save each piece of paper throughout the entirety of their trips. Each piece of information regarding every cost is loaded automatically into our cloud-based reporting database. Not only will your employees no longer have to handle data entry by themselves, but they also never have to worry about the prospect of expense documentation being lost.

Automated expense report technology makes life easier for numerous individuals working at your company. Your traveling employees will have less documents to carry and far fewer pieces of data to enter manually, and your accountants will no longer have to cross-check policy violations because the system does it for them. For high-ranking officials, these changes are welcome because they'll help increase production and efficiency, and that helps to decrease operating budgets.
