Rockwool, the UK’s leading supplier of stone wool insulation materials for thermal, fire and acoustic protection had happily been using WebExpenses since 2007.
The ‘weak link’ in the expenses process had been the ‘time lag’ between users submitting claims via WebExpenses and receiving receipts via post.
Receipt Attachments allowed users to easily upload receipts themselves by scanning them in or using a camera on their mobile phone at the same time as loading their expenses into WebExpenses.
This provided Rockwool with ‘real time visibility’ of expenses and it automated the process of matching receipts to a claim form. No longer were there receipt matching and cross reference issues.
For end users Receipt Attachments ensure their expenses get paid on time; for finance staff it has reduced the administrative burden.

2010 promises to be our biggest year ever…here are some of the things to look forward to this year:
Carbon tracking – In 2010, using WebExpenses you’ll be able to track your carbon footprint for different vehicles as well as trains and planes. This will help you calculate your carbon footprint with up to date carbon and environmental data.
Mileage verification – Introduced at the back end of 2009 and being fully rolled out in 2010, mileage verification uses postcode data to provide precise distance calculations for every business journey. This will deliver immediate cost savings and avoids exaggerated or excessive mileage claims.
Switch languages with the flick of a button – Building on our multi-currency functionality which allows configurations in multiple entities 2010 will see the launch of multi-language for WebExpenses. With a simple drop down box you can change the currency, this is great when you have offices in different countries.
Manage the greyfleet – New laws last year put more responsibility on directors should an employee have an accident while driving. Communicating company rules to employees is essential. WebExpenses will allow point of entry tick boxes when employees register a vehicle ensuring they have read the rules and mitigating the employer from any liability.
This feature is now live and some customers are using it successfully already. Contact us today if you want it.
API – Our will API make it easy to integrate WebExpenses with your existing software. Whether it’s your accounting software, project management software or CRM software WebExpenses will be able to talk to it.
WebExpenses on your Smartphone – In addition to SMS expenses look out for a mobile version of WebExpenses later this year.
