How to log project expenses, attach digital receipts, categorize costs, filter expense records, and edit entries.
1. Purpose
The Expenses Module allows project teams to record, categorize, and verify all outgoing project costs—including raw material purchases, equipment rentals, sub-contractor fees, and site operational costs.
Screenshot: Expenses Overview Dashboard
2. How It Works
Team members or site engineers log expense entries by entering itemized descriptions, selecting expense categories, and uploading paper receipt photos or invoice PDFs. Expenses are routed through approval flows before being reconciled against available project deposit funds.
3. How It Helps
Prevents Budget Overruns: Track costs against project budget caps in real time.
Digital Receipt Archive: Eliminates lost paper receipts with instant photo attachments.
Categorized Cost Control: Identify high-expense areas across materials, labor, and machinery.
4. Step-by-Step Actions
A. How to Add an Expense

2
