Spend Authorization and Travel Portal Integration

Description:
We are looking for guidance on any standard functionality within Oracle’s Expense module that supports the transmission of Spend Authorization details (Authorization Number, Amount, Expense Type) alongside employee-related data. Our goal is to integrate these Spend Authorization details with travel systems, specifically to enforce spend limits based on pre-approved authorizations in tools like GetThere.

Use Case and Business Need:
Our primary requirement is to streamline the integration of Spend Authorization information with our travel booking systems. Employees are required to obtain spend authorization before booking travel, yet our current system (GetThere) does not have the capability to enforce spending within these authorized limits. Ensuring compliance with approved budgets is critical for controlling expenses and maintaining financial discipline.
