The BTA streamlines reconciliation and payment of business travel expenses by consolidating all transactions into one simple clear statement, which has automatically matched line by line travel expenses with enhanced travel data .
Here’s how:
1. We set up your account: We work with your Travel Management Company (TMC) to set up your account and capture the data you need
2. Your travellers book their trips and advise your TMC of their defined reference fields: Customer reference fields, such as cost center codes and approval IDs will be provided by your TMC in your BTA.
3. Your Company will receive a statement and/or e-data file from American Express: Electronic data files contain details of transactions that can be used for reporting or uploading data to your internal expense management systems
4. You reconcile your transactions and pay American Express: Streamline your reconciliation process with electronic data files. Pay American Express and send your payment details with the list of approved transactions including disputed transactions if any.
Stay connected to your travel expenditure trends with a suite of management reports in hard copy or PDF, and integrate data into your backend systems with a comprehensive data file which covers all BTA details enabling more sophisticated analysis and reconciliation.
Standard reports available with the BTA include:
“This is another milestone for Malaysia Airlines’ to be the first to introduce a co-branded payment solution in Malaysia to reward our corporate customers.
