New TEAMS Version with GeneXus 8.0

In-Style Software has released version 2.0 of TEAM, an expense management system developed with GeneXus. Diego Prusky, Project Manager, shares his development experience as well as the commercial plans.

What is TEAMS?
TEAMS (Travel Expense Administration and Management System) simplifies expense report handling. The system is 100% web, so it can be accessed from anywhere through the Internet. These reports may refer to travel expenses (T&E), car mileage or just company expenses such as office-supply purchases, etc.
Thanks to GeneXus, we have created a very flexible, easy-to-configure system that can be used for multiple industries. It has an approval process (workflow-type) that facilitates the approval of incurred expenses. It also offers auditing, personal-expense payment, and data export into the financial system. We use GXQuery for reporting, which allowed us to provide our clients with very powerful reporting capabilities without having to create a dozen reports.

Why did you decide to change to GeneXus 8.0?
Some months ago, we decided to market TEAMS as a product for targeting new clients. This kind of product is on the rise in the United States, given the current cost-reduction trend. We needed a standard, user-friendly, and professional-looking interface. That is why we decided to use GeneXus 8.0 Themes.

What other new GeneXus 8.0 features are you using?
TEAMS sends notices through e-mail. Instead of incorporating the feature to TEAMS, by using web services, created an application that only sends e-mails and that may be used for all our products. We used the WSDL Inspector in order to help us with programming. We also used other features such as header access with JavaScript, for the calendar.

What are your future plans?
We have just added receipt scanning by using BLOB's; this is another new feature from GeneXus 8.0. We are also implementing 'company policies', which limits the expenses incurred per-category, for defined groups of people.
We would like to invite you to visit our site at www.instylesoft.com/teams , and check the product information. We are also making an effort in marketing the product in the United States, and we are interested in having distributors in Latin America and Europe.
