At the same time, it is quite possible to avoid those audits and thus work interruptions when you have enough visibility into what is going on. For example, such risk as unauthorized budget spending is almost impossible to take place when you have all of your expenses and budgets in one system, along with their approval processes. The system is always up-to-date if it is an online business process management solution which provides holistic real-time control over departmental work.

Let’s create a scenario.
You’re the CEO of a mid-sized company that’s continually expanding, therefore, with considerable staffing requirements. For every position that opens, around 20 candidates become interested.
