Understanding Expense Management System Setup

Before using the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Expense Management system, you must set up user-defined codes (UDCs) and other system information, such as expense categories, policies, group and employee profiles, and account information, that the system uses during processing. You can customize and revise this information to meet changing business requirements.
