Expenses app

The Expenses app is designed to track expenses incurred by your employees in Bitrix24. The app functionalities let you track and receive expense reports submitted by your employees efficiently.

You can launch the app from the following entities: leads, deals, contacts and companies. Your set of expenses will be bound to the very same element from which the app has been launched. 

That is, if you added insurance costs to a specific deal in progress, it will stay just where it belongs. You can install the app in a few click, just like that, no additional setup is required. Free of charge on any commercial plan.

How to start

To access the app:

  1. Open any of your leads, deals, contacts, or companies
  2. Navigate to the slider timeline activities pane. You can position the tab in the menu as you like

Access permissions

  1. Regular users see their expenses and reports only
  2. Department supervisors see their own and their subordinates’ reports and expenses
  3. Administrators see all of them
Users can only be a member of one department for the app to work correctly. The current version does not support the allocation of expenses and reports to several departments.

Expense tracking in CRM entity cards

Expenses that have been agreed on and approved in the app's tab will be registered in the custom field named Agreed_expenses. 

Furthermore, the expense record will be added to CRM entity's timeline as a custom activity. In order for it to land in a specific deal, just register an expense and approve it within the application tab in the very same entity. That function is designed to help you track deal-related expenses.
