All the information inserted by the workers is stored in a database so that statistical data may be retrieved when needed.
The tasks of approving expenses and advancements, which are performed by the workers’ direct supervisor or by the following hierarchichal superiors according to each ones’ approval limits, are automatically executed by the system. It is up to the Financial Board to proceed to the final validation of the expense/advancement and its respective payment.
The system also has the capacity of consolidating the supplied advancements with the justified expenses submitted by the workers and perform the respective account settlement.
Two files will be generated on a monthly basis – one file for the SAP containing the accounting transactions related to the payment of expenses and a second file for the HRD (Human Resources Department) containing the number of meals consumed by the workers on week days.
