Description

The University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) is seeking to replace the current paper based system of managing expenses with a new electronic system which will streamline processes.
We currently use a paper-based system, which is resource and time intensive and increases the risk of error and potentially malpractice.
The university processes between 4,000-6,000 paper claim forms a year. In one year for example there were 4,523 claims from 1,289 individuals for £681,000 across 472 project codes and 106 account codes involving 16,223 lines in Agresso
The University therefore requires a modern, professional, efficient electronic expenses system to seamlessly interface with the Financial Accounting system (Unit4 Agresso) and Payroll/HR system, (Midland ITrent) that will be more efficient and cost effective
