Prepaid Expense
Prepaid expenses are advance payments for future services, like software licenses or travel bookings, tracked until utilization. The platform tags these expenses, allocating them over time for accurate budgeting. Receipts validate payments, and alerts monitor expiring services to prevent waste. Prepaid expenses are distinctly categorized in reports, ensuring financial clarity. This helps finance teams manage cash flow and align expenses with accounting periods. Automation reduces manual tracking, enhancing efficiency and compliance with company policies.
