Expense management enables you create an integrated workflow where you can store payment method information, import credit card transactions, and track the money that employees are spending when they incur expenses for your business. You can also define expense policies and automate the reimbursement of travel expenses. The Expense management module integrates with Project, Accounts payable, and the General ledger. While the administrative work in Expense management in performed in the Microsoft Dynamics AX client, Enterprise Portal is where expense reports and cash advance requests are made.
Project enables you to plan, organize, and manage company projects. A company's processes, budgets, and resources can be entered and monitored for each project. The projects that you create in the Project module can be integrated with other areas of Microsoft Dynamics AX, such as Accounts payable, Accounts receivable, and Production.
