[Illustrative example · fictional data] [“I need to submit the expenses for this trip.”] [Claim RC-307 · Transport: R$ 180.00] [Stated purpose · visit to Project Atlas] A person submits the receipt for a trip.

[NebulaOS · Starya builds and connects within the operation’s scope · Expense channel · Expense record] [Illustrative interface · Features and integrations depend on the deployment.] On NebulaOS, connected by Starya within the operation’s scope, the flow receives the expense through the channel and records it.

[Missing: cost center] [What is the cost center for this trip?] The flow links receipt and purpose, but the cost center is missing. The person gets a request for only what’s missing.

[Cost center: Project Atlas.] [Cost center · Project Atlas] [Policy and expense claim] [Review workflow · Claim RC-307 · R$ 180.00] [Mark as reviewed → Reviewed by the manager · Forward to finance] [Forwarded to finance · receipt pending] [Finance system] [The destination still needs to confirm receipt.] With the answer, the file is linked to the policy and goes to the manager. The manager reviews and forwards it. Forwarding is not receiving: the operation waits for the response.

[Finance received the claim] [No payment was requested or confirmed.] Finance confirms it received the claim. This scope ends here: payment is a separate step.

[At which handoff does your team have to ask for the same information again?] [Starya · We accelerate your AI strategy. NebulaOS is the operating foundation.] At which handoff does your team have to ask for the same information again?

What confirms completion

Finance confirms receipt of the reviewed expense claim.

What NebulaOS supports in this scenario

In this scenario, NebulaOS relates the expense channel, the expense record, the policy and expense claim, the review workflow and the finance system, connected within the operation’s scope, up to receipt confirmed by finance. The policy applied and the point where finance confirms depend on the deployment.

  • NebulaWorks Brings together the work, owners, pending items and process artifacts.
  • Starya / FDE Identifies ambiguous classifications and improves the expense claim form.

Text version

The main content, without depending on the video or the simulation.

Initial request “I need to submit the expenses for this trip.”

A person submits a travel expense. The flow links receipt, purpose, policy and cost center. A missing item prevents the claim from being prepared until it is provided. The manager reviews it and finance confirms receipt; payment is a separate step.

The person submits the receipt for a trip. The operation relates receipt and stated purpose, notices the cost center is missing and asks only for that. With it, the file is linked to the expense policy and goes to the manager, who reviews and forwards it. Finance confirms it received the reviewed claim. Payment is not part of this scope.
