From Request to Expense Claim

The traveler asks, approvers decide, the travel desk books — and when they're home, the claim starts from the trip.

Your Travel Policy, Built In

Your currency, rates, advance limit and policy live in VergeHR, so every request is checked before anyone approves it.

Checks Before Approval

A request that starts in the past or asks for an advance over your limit can't be sent. Costs above your rates are flagged for the approver.

A Travel Desk View

Trips to approve, to book, upcoming and away now, and advances to pay — each a tab, so nothing waits unnoticed.

Straight into Expense

After the trip, one press starts the expense claim in VergeHR Expense, and the trip shows the advance against what was claimed.

Plan a Trip in One Sentence

Plan with AI turns a sentence into a full request — the purpose, legs, nights and estimated costs. The traveler checks it and sends it.

  • The per diem always comes from your company's rates
  • Approvers can ask AI to check a trip against the policy
  • Nothing is sent until the traveler presses Send for Approval

Questions & Answers

Does VergeHR book flights and hotels?

No. Your travel desk books them as it does today and records each booking — provider, reference, dates, cost and the ticket — on the trip, so the traveler has everything in one place.

Who approves trips?

You decide in VergeHR's Approval System: automatic, or up to five approvers in turn — the direct manager, their manager, a department head, a specific person or any administrator.

How are cash advances handled?

You choose whether advances are allowed and the largest amount. The travel desk marks an advance paid, and after the trip it's set against the expense claim — owed to the traveler or to be paid back.

Can travelers use their phone?

Yes. Travelers can request and follow their trips, and approvers can decide, in the VergeHR iPhone and Android apps as well as on the web.

What does the AI see?

Planning sees the sentence you give it, where the traveler is based and your company's currency and rates. The policy check sees the trip and your travel policy. AI drafts and advises — it never sends or approves anything.
