🌐 VTE Global Stakeholder Ecosystem
One platform, one source of truth – serving every participant in the organisation
Employees
Full‑time and part‑time staff across all departments – Debtors, Payroll, Stock, Fixed Assets, Operations. They access the ERP for timesheets, leave applications, payslips, and performance reviews. Their project allocations and cost centres drive the Activity‑Based Costing engine.
Practitioners
Independent professionals (medical, legal, consulting) who deliver services through our platform. They manage their own schedules, session rates, and client bookings. Their earnings are processed through the payroll and integrated into the location‑based ABC reports.
Investors
Equity and debt investors who monitor portfolio performance. They receive real‑time dashboards with financial roll‑ups by country, region, and project. Access is strictly controlled to ensure they see only aggregated, non‑sensitive data.
Creditors / Suppliers
Vendors and service providers who interact with the Creditors module. They submit invoices, track payment statuses, and update their banking details through a self‑service portal. Their transactions feed directly into the general ledger.
Debtors / Customers
Clients who purchase goods or services. They view statements, make payments, and book appointments. Their accounts are linked to specific projects and locations, enabling accurate revenue attribution and debtor ageing analysis.
Shareholders
Owners of the company who require consolidated financial statements and strategic KPIs. They access the Executive Suite to review performance across all entities, with drill‑down capability from country to district level.
SARS / Tax Authorities
The South African Revenue Service and other tax bodies. The system generates IRP5/IT3a certificates, VAT returns, and payroll tax submissions. SARS users have read‑only access to audit trails and statutory reports via dedicated portals.
Consultants
External advisors (tax, legal, IT) who are contracted for specific projects. They log time, submit deliverables, and are paid through the payroll system. Their project allocations are tracked for cost management.
External Auditors
Independent audit firms (e.g., PwC, KPMG) who review financial statements. They are granted temporary, read‑only access to the full general ledger, trial balance, and supporting documents. Their access is time‑bound and fully audited.
Internal Audit
The organisation’s own audit team. They have continuous monitoring access to all transactions, access logs, and compliance reports. They enforce segregation of duties and flag anomalies through the compliance dashboard.
Bankers
Relationship managers and credit analysts at financial institutions. They receive automated financial covenant reports, cash‑flow forecasts, and asset‑backed security updates. Their access is limited to financial summary data.
Funders / Donors
Grant‑making organisations and development finance institutions. They view programme‑specific expenditure reports, outcome metrics, and budget vs actual comparisons. Every transaction is traceable to the funder’s grant code.
Financial Press / Media
Journalists and analysts who cover the company. They receive embargoed press releases, annual reports, and SENS announcements through a controlled distribution list. No direct system access is granted.
Analysts
Equity and credit analysts who evaluate the company’s performance. They access a curated data room with historical financials, investor presentations, and key operational metrics. Data is read‑only and refreshed quarterly.
