The expense process is already digital in many companies: receipts are photographed using a smartphone, employees submit their expenses via an app and approvals are automated. However, when the data needs to be transferred to the ERP system at the latest, manual steps often crop up again - such as export files, post-processing or additional postings in SAP.
The real added value only arises when expense management and the ERP system are directly linked. Expenses are then transferred in a structured manner, posted automatically and can be traced immediately in the financial system.
This is exactly what our joint webinar with Circula on March 27, 2026 from 11.30 a.m., which is free of charge for you, is all about.
The bottleneck in many financial processes: Integration
In many companies, tools for travel expenses and employee expenses are already digitized. However, automation often ends where the ERP begins.
Typical scenarios are
-
Spend data is exported via CSV
-
Postings are transferred manually to SAP
-
References such as cost centers or projects are missing or need to be reworked
-
Queries delay the month-end closing
The result: a process that is actually digital remains fragmented.
The greatest efficiency lever lies in the integration of the systems.
Circula: Modern expense and expenditure processes
With Circula, employees can easily record expenses on their mobile devices and submit receipts digitally. The software automates numerous steps in the expense process - from receipt recognition to checking for tax compliance.
Companies benefit from this:
-
Significantly less manual input
-
Automated approval processes
-
structured and verified donation data
-
faster settlement of travel costs and expenses
However, for this data to be posted fully automatically in the ERP, it needs to be properly integrated into the SAP landscape.
