Expense Report
A validation of the final step in corporate travel
An expense report audit is essential to ensure excess spending by employees is addressed. Expense reports are where the most corporate fraud takes place. These documents should always be reviewed and investigated so a travel program can be enforced. By implementing a regularly scheduled expense report audit you can continually identify over spending, get to the root of the problem and address the employees and expenditures which need to be reviewed.

Topaz International has uncovered these, and other startling expenses, in what CEO Bradley Seitz called the final link in the end-to-end travel chain—the Expense Report Audit. "This final step is crucial to making sure fraud is not happening as well as understanding what leakage your program is facing," Seitz said.
