End-userThe roles within Acubiz are outlined below, indicating that a user is assigned the designation of an end-user in Acubiz. An end-user license corresponds to a user whose roles are determined by a combination of one or more of the roles listed below. |
Employee
All users created in Acubiz are automatically given the Employee role.
This role cannot be removed, but it allows the employee to make settlements in Acubiz and log into the Acubiz app.
Approver
If you have the approver role, you can be assigned as an approver for other users. To become an approver for someone, you need to be added as their approver. How to change an approver for a user >>
When you are an approver for one or more employees, you will receive their expenses for approval. Before approving or rejecting, you might need to review several points.
- Is this a business-related expense?
- Is the expense within the agreed framework?
- Is there proper documentation, like receipts?
- Are the costs correctly allocated (department, project, etc.)?
There might be more or fewer checkpoints depending on the situation, but the main idea is that approvers review the expenses submitted for approval.
| ℹ️ It is essential that approvers thoroughly review these points, as selecting the APPROVE button constitutes explicit managerial authorization and entails accountability. |
An approver can:
-
Standard Acubiz features
- Approve expenses
- Reject expenses (sending them back to the employee with a message)
-
Acubiz purchasing features
- Transfer the cost to another approver
- Edit expenses
Secretary
The secretary role can be assigned to users who handle settlements on behalf of someone else. When a user is given the secretary role, they must also be activated as secretary for the users they assist.
