Expense management system Abacus' new Live
Reports function allows managers to view expenses awaiting approval by such
groupings as employee, expense type, project and department. Managers can
customize the categories. Previously, CEO Omar Qari explained, managers could
create and save filtered searches, but the user interface was onerous and each
search required a time frame for when the expense was incurred. Refreshing that
search for a new time period meant restarting the cumbersome search process.
