Apptricity Expense Management includes built-in travel booking that expedites the expense reporting process for employees and approving managers. All parties benefit from centralized travel planning that conforms to corporate policies.

The Apptricity Expense Management application automatically downloads from any credit card provider to auto-populate transaction details, drastically reducing manual data entry. Built-in support for over 160 currencies and constantly-updated exchange rates make conversion a snap for international travelers, even when juggling multiple currencies in a single transaction.

“Apptricity’s integration into GetThere will enable Apptricity customers to book hotels, airfare, and car rentals, manage pre-trip authorizations, and automatically create expense reports from travel booking data,” said Brian Anderson, Apptricity Expense Management Product Manager. “Customers can also create travel itineraries or add trip details to the integrated calendar, all of which is accessible online or through mobile devices.”
