# Expense Policy Decision Engine

#### Enterprise finance teams face critical bottlenecks in expense management

* 100+ expense reports submitted weekly via **SAP Concur**
* Justification notes scattered across **Salesforce**, **Slack**, and shared docs
* Policy thresholds vary by **region, department, and role**
* Exceptions logged in outdated Notion pages or spreadsheet trackers
* Audit prep requires **manual review and custom dashboarding** in **PowerBI**

#### This results in delays, confusion, policy violations, and compliance risk — every quarter.

| -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| A $412 dinner expense from the Singapore team is submitted in SAP          | GLIK detects the region and applies the updated $450 threshold          |
| Policy tracker says $300 is the limit, but APAC leads emailed a new policy | Updated policy is already stored in memory and applied automatically    |
| Reviewer digs through Slack, Salesforce, and Google Docs for justification | GLIK cross-references Salesforce for justification (“Q3 client summit”) |
| Decision takes hours or is approved with uncertainty                       | Flags entry as within policy and logs full audit justification          |
| No clear traceability or audit readiness                                   | Reviewer is notified via Slack with one-click confirmation              |
