FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I purchase the Finance Suite separately?
Finance & Compensation Suite is an Add-On Suite that can be added to Business or Enterprise base packages. It cannot be purchased separately; however, you can activate it by paying $2.49/month per employee in addition to your base package fee.
What's included in expense management?
Full expense lifecycle: receipt upload, VAT calculation with multiple rates, multi-level approval, cost center allocation, and payroll reimbursement. Supports transport, food, accommodation, and custom expense categories with payment method selection (cash, card, transfer).
How does advance/loan management work?
Three types are supported: salary advance, work advance, and installment loans. Each has configurable limits, multi-level approval workflows, automatic installment tracking, remaining balance monitoring, and seamless payroll integration for deductions.
Does travel management include booking?
Travel management handles request and approval workflows, not booking. Employees submit travel requests with dates, destination, vehicle type (car, airplane, own car), and accommodation needs. Approved travel links to expense claims for seamless reconciliation.
