Finance teams process a lot of requests.
Staff expenses. Vendor payments. Reimbursements. Department spending. Project expenses.
When those requests start piling up, processing every one individually can quickly become a job of its own.
That is why Flex now lets approvers and disbursers review, approve and disburse up to 100 expense requests at once.
Instead of processing 20, 50 or 100 requests individually, your team can handle them together and move on.
What is Flex Multi Approval and Multi Disbursement?
Multi Approval and Multi Disbursement is a Flex Finance feature that allows authorised approvers and disbursers in an organisation to process multiple expense requests at the same time.
With the new release, teams can process up to 100 requests at once.
The workflow is simple:
Review the requests.
Approve the requests.
Disburse the requests.
Clear the queue at once!
The approval process is still there. Flex simply makes it easier to process a large number of requests when they are ready.
The Colosseum understood something about scale
A little history.
The Colosseum is one of the New Seven Wonders of the World.
Its scale is impressive, but so is the engineering behind it.
Thousands of people could enter, move around and leave through a carefully designed network of entrances, corridors and passageways.
It was designed to handle a lot of movement at once.
Nearly 2,000 years later, that principle still matters.
Good systems should not become slower simply because there is more activity.
That brings us back to Flex.
As a business grows, the number of expense requests usually grows with it. More employees, departments, branches, projects and vendors can mean more requests moving through the finance team.
Your expense approval process should be able to keep up.
Clear large expense approval queues faster
Imagine seeing 73 expense requests waiting for action.
Previously, processing them one after another could take considerable time.
Now, authorised members of your team can process those requests together.
Whether there are 20, 50 or 100 requests, Flex helps finance teams clear large approval and disbursement queues faster.
100 requests. One move.
Why bulk approvals matter for growing businesses
Business spending becomes more complex as a company grows.
The answer is not to remove controls.
It is to make those controls easier to operate at scale.
With Multi Approval and Multi Disbursement, businesses can maintain their expense approval process while reducing the repetitive work involved in processing large volumes of requests.
For finance teams, that means less time spent moving through requests individually and more time available for the rest of the finance function.
From expense request to payment on Flex
Flex helps businesses manage the business spending process in one place.
Employees can submit expense requests.
The appropriate people can review and approve them.
Approved expenses can be disbursed.
The transaction and supporting records remain connected to the process.
And now, when there is a large queue waiting, teams can process up to 100 requests at once.
