Gelco Virtual Client Conference: Extracts and Audit Files – What Are They?

Maximize your data for key insights
Do you have visibility into the approval/adjustment process, travel spend and expense controls?  Ever wonder who in your organization:
  • Changed banking information for users
  • Made someone an approver
  • Increased a user’s authorization limit
  • Completed any of dozens of other changes to your account setup?

Well, the Gelco Audit Files can tell you this and more.  They can be a powerful tool to help you track what changes were made to your account and who made them.

Gelco will be holding a Virtual Client Conference on Tuesday June 13th from 10:00-11:00 AM Central Time in which you will learn how to get valuable insights from the Gelco Extracts and Audit Files.  We will show you examples of the full breadth of information captured in the expense report process, including who approved expense reports and what changes were made to an expense report.  We will also show you how you can inspect the controls that you have put in place in the automated expense report process and the audit trails that you have access to.

The Virtual Client Conference event is designed for those people in your organization that manage and analyze the expense management process such as Program Administrators, auditors and analysts.  Register here for this free informational web seminar. The VCC will also be available after June 13th on the Gelco Customer Support Site. Gelco will also be launching a new Web-Based Training (WBT) to demonstrate how to request an audit file, download the file, import it into Excel and analyze the file to determine what changes were made and who made the changes.  This WBT will be available on the Gelco Customer Support Site.
