One computer-implemented method comprises receiving requests to create subforms associated with a digitally stored expense trip preapproval form; in a particular subform, receiving input specifying input values for attributes of the particular subform, the plurality of input values collectively specifying the travel expense item; programmatically transmitting, to a price modeling server, a query comprising the input values and requesting a cost value for a travel item corresponding to the input values, and receiving a predicted cost of the travel expense item; automatically updating the particular subform to display the predicted cost and to populate the predicted cost into a total cost attribute, the total cost attribute being separate from the predicted cost; receiving an updated value of the total cost attribute and updating it; in response to determining that the updated total cost attribute differs from the predicted cost, presenting a notification specifying an amount of the difference.

Smart trip preapproval prediction

In one embodiment, the disclosure provides a machine-implemented technique that improves the traditional methods of expense reimbursement processes by allowing an authorized delegate, e.g., administrative assistant, that is acting on behalf of another, e.g., account owner, to add expense items through a device on which the delegate is logged-in to, as opposed to a device on which the account owner is logged-in to, all without requiring the delegate to manage multiple user accounts and in an automated fashion.

Delegated document scan and storage

This specification describes technologies that relate to creating animation effects in an animation at runtime and without requiring the animation effects to be stored in every frame or time instance of the animation. In general, one aspect of the subject matter described in this specification can be embodied in a method that includes obtaining animation information having a primary object and a first effect object associated with the primary object. The method also includes generating an animation sequence using the animation information. The animation sequence includes the primary object on which the first effect object and a second effect object can be applied. The act of generating an animation sequence includes interpolating between the first and second effect objects to create at least one intermediate effect applied to the primary object in the animation sequence. Other embodiments of this aspect include corresponding systems, apparatus, and computer program products.
