“We can now see obligations before they become obligations, and we know what we owe before we owe it. It’s a truly positive thing.”

About GLI

 

 


Gaming Laboratories International Issues

  • Limited Access to Expense Control Software: GLI employees worked in remote locations throughout the world. Because of limited locations and time zones, employees had limited access to GLI’s existing expense control software.
  • Inefficient Approval Processes: GLI had limited automation for transaction approval processes, leading to lengthy approval times and inconsistencies that distracted management from concentrating on core business functions.
  • Inadequate Expense Transaction Integration: GLI managed its purchasing, invoicing and travel & entertainment expense reporting transactions separately, making a consolidated view of expenses against budgets difficult to obtain.

Gaming Laboratories International Expense Management Goals

  • Worldwide Access to Expense Control, At Any Time: GLI needed an expense control and compliance system that its employees could access at any time, regardless of location or time zone.
  • Automation of Approval Processes: GLI required a system that would automate and enforce unambiguous approval processes to increase the efficiency of transaction approvals and allow management to focus on core business functions.
  • Complete Expense Transaction Coverage: GLI wanted a single system that would manage all aspects of expense control, including purchasing, invoicing and travel & expense reporting.
  • Budgeting: GLI wanted to hold its employees accountable for their spending by giving them budgets to work with and enforcing spending limits.
