Intro – Advance Request #
Many organizations offer employee advances to cover work-related expenses such as travel, accommodation, and other necessary business costs. acci.cloud facilitates this process through a two-step workflow: submitting an advance request and disbursing payments for approved requests. Consequently, employees must first prepare and have their advance requests approved before receiving the advance payment.
- Advance Request is a non-posting transaction.
- If advance approval process is off, all created requests will be auto approved upon saving.
- You can refer to an existing Advance Request when creating an Expense Claim.
- The repayment of an advance amount can be recorded in the Reimbursement.
