Expenses
Track what your school spends — categorised, recorded, and grouped by source.
The expenses side of finance records money the school spends. Expenses are organised into categories and come from a few sources:
| Source | Where it comes from |
|---|---|
| Manual expenses | Expenses you record by hand — see Record an expense. |
| Vehicle expenses | Generated from transport activity. |
| Payroll expenses | Generated from staff salaries. |
Vehicle and payroll expenses are produced automatically by their modules — you review them here rather than entering them. Manual expenses are the ones you create yourself.
Steps
Create expense categories
Set up the categories you will file expenses under — see Create expense categories.
Record expenses
Enter each manual expense against a category — see Record an expense.
Review every source
The expenses area separates manual, vehicle, and payroll expenses into tabs so you can review each, plus a tab for categories.
Everything belongs to an academic year
Expense categories and expenses are created within the selected academic year.
