What to expect during your Nexonia Implementation
- When the Business Requirements Document has been submitted you will have an Implementation Specialist assigned to your account within 10-15 business days.
- The average implementation length is 6-8 weeks from the date of the kickoff call.
- Web meetings with your Implementation Specialist will be scheduled upon the completion of milestones.
- Between meetings, emails will be responded to within 3 business days.
- After each web meeting we will email you with open items to complete.
- If more than two weeks are required to complete your open items your implementation will be paused until they are completed. Your CSM will liaise with you during this time.
What we need from you to do a great job:
- A designated contact from your team who will coordinate and manage the implementation project for your team, and act as the solitary decision-making authority.
- Nexonia will request data from you. Delivery of this data in a timely fashion will move the implementation along faster.
- Please ensure the data you send us is the complete, final version. Nexonia will configure your account based on what is sent.
- Corrections or change requests made after configuration will result in delays and/or additional fees.
- Achieve consensus regarding your team's processes, objectives and requirements in advance of scheduled web meetings.
- Do not begin regular usage of Nexonia until the Implementation is complete.
Nexonia Implementation Milestones
The following milestones and their associated tasks typically occur over a period of 6-8 weeks, with email communication as needed in between.

When you launch Nexonia with your organization, we recommend these steps as best practice for a smooth transition:
Make sure notifications are on at both the system and user level.
Double check role permissions are set correctly for all users, including turning approvals on.
For Expenses, review credit card integration & ignore irrelevant transactions.
For web-based integrations, ensure configuration synchronization and exports are running successfully.
Fill in “Send errors to” fields in integration(s) (ERP and Credit Cards).
Delete test transactions.
Send password resets (if necessary) to alert users they have access to Nexonia.
Welcome new users to Nexonia (optional).

Depending on the question, Nexonia Support and Training will refer users to ask their question internally at your organization. Nexonia is the tool, but you make the rules as far as policies and processes go.
Here are some common questions that we answer with, “It would be best to confirm with your internal administrators.” We’ll provide some Help Center articles on how administrators can resolve these questions:
When Users Can Login
Q: Can you send me my login credentials?
A: Send Password-Reset Email Notification to Users
Mileage
Q: How do I enter personal mileage?
A: Adding a Mileage Expense Category and Creating a Mileage Expense on the Mobile App
Tips
Q: How do I enter the tip amount from a restaurant or taxi?
A: Creating Expense Categories and Configuring Rules and Policies
Credit Cards
Q: When do my company credit card transactions get uploaded to Nexonia?
A: How Long Do Company Credit Card Transactions Take to Import to Nexonia?
Reimbursement Policy
Q: What do I do if I expense over what my company allows - I enter the full amount or only what I’m supposed to be reimbursed? What do I do if I lose my receipt?
A: Creating Expense Categories and Configuring Rules and Policies

Change can be difficult – we know. On top of change, no one wants to be surprised by it. We encourage administrators to create a welcome email to send to new Nexonia users. If you're launching Nexonia for your organization, relay the message that a new (great!) system is coming, and do it early and often. The more you communicate, the less push-back you’ll experience.
We’ve included some announcement templates in the article attachments here to get you started. These templates can be edited by your organization as needed.
