Features

ADMIN

Introducing American Express® Virtual Card Issuance

Customers based in the U.S. can now issue virtual American Express® Cards in Emburse Enterprise. Cards can be issued through both pre-approval and on-demand workflows. Admins with the Connect Card Programs permission can begin enrollment for Virtual Card issuance by navigating to Admin Settings → Transactions → Card Programs → Add Card Program.

Once enrolled, Administrators with the Show Card Issuance Button permission enabled in Access Permissions will see an Issue New Card button available in the Card Programs screen referenced above.

Cardholder Records

American Express requires personal information to be gathered for both users who are issuing Virtual Cards and the users who eventually receive a Virtual Card. If American Express does not already have the information needed to create this Cardholder Record, Emburse Enterprise will prompt the user to provide such personal information as address, date of birth, and phone number before a Card can be issued.

Upon Card issuance, Administrators can view, edit, or cancel American Express Virtual Cards individually through the details view found via Admin Settings → Transactions → Card Programs → Selected Card Program → Selected Virtual Card.  Individual Cardholders will have a similar detail view in their eWallet but will not have the same edit/cancel capabilities as administrators.

On-Demand Card Issuance

Admins can now configure and issue Cards on-demand in Emburse Enterprise, giving employees faster access to Cards. From Transactions → Card Programs → Issue New Card, administrators can issue tightly controlled Virtual Cards directly from the Card Programs screen without the requirement for pre-approval.

Pre-Approval Issuance Flow

Customers with the Pre-Approval module will also have the option to turn on Card requests upon enrolling in American Express Virtual Card issuance.  Once this is enabled, users will be able to select the funding method for their pre-approval and select the enrolled account.

Similar to the on-demand flow, if a Cardholder Record does not exist for a given user upon requesting a Card, the pre-approval form will require the user to enter personal information before finalizing the request.

EXPENSE ENTRY

Expanded AI Receipt-Data Capture for Airfare

Emburse Enterprise now supports AI-based autofill for additional airfare-related fields, helping users complete expense submissions faster and with fewer manual edits. When a user uploads a receipt that includes flight information, the enhanced AI model automatically identifies and populates the Airline Company, Airfare Class, and Departure Date fields.

This improvement builds on the existing AI Receipt-Data Capture functionality by using contextual OCR and pattern recognition to accurately extract airline, fare-class and departure date data from flight receipts and e-tickets, ensuring greater consistency in reporting and compliance.

Rollout Schedule: Available to all Emburse Enterprise customers now.

AI-Powered Hotel Folio Capture Now Live for All Customers

Emburse Folio’s AI-driven hotel receipt capture and itemization is now fully live in Production for all customers with a Hotel Folio subscription. With this release, customers benefit from automated extraction of check-in and check-out dates, room charges, taxes, and other line-item details directly from uploaded hotel receipts. This enhancement eliminates the need for manual folio data entry and improves reporting accuracy and policy compliance.

Customers without a Hotel Folio subscription will continue to see automatic population of check-in and check-out date fields when visible on supported expense forms.

Rollout Schedule: Available to all customers with a Hotel Folio subscription now.

MOBILE APP

Microsoft Intune Integration Now Supported on iOS

The Emburse Enterprise mobile app now supports integration with the Microsoft Intune SDK for managed iOS devices. When enabled, the app applies your organization’s Intune security and compliance policies, helping protect corporate data and ensure policy enforcement for mobile users.

Intune allows you to enforce such corporate security policies as encryption, copy and paste restrictions, and secure data storage while also providing configuration controls for allowed domains, managed browsers, and conditional access. For complete details, see Enable Microsoft Intune on Managed iOS Devices.

Rollout Schedule: Available to all Emburse Enterprise customers who use Microsoft Intune for iOS mobile device management (MDM).
