Edi digitises the entire travel and expense process: from receipt capture, meal allowances, and approval to audit-proof documentation and transfer to DATEV, SAP, or your ERP system.
Why German Companies Rely on Edi
German travel expense processes rarely fail because of the app itself — but rather due to allowances, receipt logic, approvals, tax details, and the transfer to the ERP. Edi connects exactly these steps into a verifiable end-to-end process, combining modern technology with the complex requirements of the German market.
Securely Manage German Travel Expenses
Edi automates receipts, allowances, and approvals — tailored to German tax, audit, and accounting requirements.
BMF allowances for domestic and international travel
GoBD-compliant documentation with an audit trail
DATEV-ready export and SAP/ERP/HRM/TMC/OBE integration
Simple for Everyday Use. Powerful for Finance.
Employees record travel expenses intuitively. Finance, HR, and compliance departments manage rules, costs, and processes centrally — transparently, securely, and efficiently.

Travel, Pay, and Approve Without Excel

Stress-Free Travel Expense Allowances
Manual calculation of additional meal expenses is error-prone and time-consuming. Whether dealing with the 8-hour rule, days of arrival and departure, or complex international trips, mistakes can quickly lead to issues during a tax audit.
Edi automates the calculation completely. The system considers current German legal requirements and applies them correctly based on your employees' travel data — transparently and audit-proof.
