What does Infor Expense Management add?
Infor sells Expense Management as its own cloud product, with OCR, a mobile app with offline mode, automated report creation from corporate card feeds, policy alerts and approval workflows. It works with Infor or non-Infor ERPs. For LN customers it is a second product to buy and roll out.
When is a separate tool worth it?
When card spend on the plant floor and in engineering outweighs travel, or when you want coding decided before review. Vergo proposes the coding by inference from your own accounting structure and history — no rule library to build, no keyword lists to maintain, and new vendors are coded on first sight. Once your IT enables API access, Vergo reads your LN ledger accounts and cost centres and posts coded card transactions back to LN.
How Vergo works alongside LN
LN stays your ledger for every company and site. Employees handle everything by text message — no app to download, no portal login — and Vergo chases missing receipts itself instead of waiting for a report. Reimbursements and supplier invoices go through the same coding and review, and payment stays on the rails you already use.
A practical example
An aerospace components maker on LN runs travel through Infor Expense Management but leaves shop-floor card spend to month-end journals. With Vergo, each plant purchase triggers a text for the receipt, and the controller confirms a proposed account, cost center and business unit before the transaction posts to LN.
