Product scope

What it does

Expense vouchers are created pending and post to the books only after a second person approves — self-approval is blocked, approved vouchers become immutable, and every voucher gets a sequential number. AI suggests the right ledger category from the payee and note (grounded only on the school's own category list), and duplicate-payment detection flags the same payee + amount within 14 days.

The school problem

School teams need a dependable way to handle Expense Management: Record and categorize spend. The required records, assigned roles and review boundary must remain explicit.

Frequently asked questions

The questions school owners ask before they subscribe: what it does, who can see it, and what to set up first.

Does Expense Management work on its own?

Accounting Reports, Approval Workflow, Financial Summary, Automations are the documented neighbouring capabilities. They help a school evaluate the surrounding hand-offs, but a related page does not mean every integration is automatic or included in every plan.

What should our school prepare before enabling Expense Management?

A plan that includes Accounting, plus a chart of accounts and an open period. A plan that includes Aira for optional category suggestions. Confirm plan scope, role permissions, data dependencies and any provider or migration prerequisites during the demo and proposal.

Is AI used in Expense Management?

Deterministic workflow with governed AI assistance. Aira supports only the reviewed actions listed on this page, and authorised people remain responsible for confirming material actions.

How do we confirm the plan and implementation scope?

Plan inclusion and rollout scope depend on the live plan matrix, readiness state and your school's written proposal. The demo team will confirm the applicable boundary before rollout.
