What is Facility Expense Automation ERP?
Facility Expense Automation ERP is Firmity's expense and budget control module for facility operations. Teams attach bills as PDFs, categorise each expense and track spending by cost centre, location or property in one central dashboard. Category-wise budget caps and policy rules are enforced automatically, so a budget breach triggers an alert before the money is spent rather than after the month closes. Expenses move through maker-checker approval workflows, vendor claims and travel advances are handled in the same system, and recurring expenses are scheduled instead of re-entered every month. Every payment and approval is written to an audit trail, and audit-ready journals post directly to the general ledger, which removes the gap between operational spending and the finance books. Expense analytics, trend analysis and exportable reports show where facility costs are rising across multiple properties, so managers can act on the data.
Everything your finance team needs to control facility spend.
Expense Bill Capture
Attach PDF bills directly to each expense entry — no lost paperwork or separate filing system.
Category & Cost-Center Tracking
Every expense is tagged by category and cost center or location for clean, comparable reporting.
Budget Creation & Alerts
Set category-wise budget caps and get alerted before spend crosses the line, not after.
Approval Workflow
Every expense routes through a defined approval chain before it's paid — no email chasing.
Recurring Expense Management
Set up recurring bills once and let them post automatically each cycle without re-entry.
Expense Analytics & Trends
Track spend trends across properties and catch anomalies early with a consolidated dashboard.

What a month of facility spend looks like with Facility Expense Automation ERP.
Original walkthrough for this build — no new numbers, just the sequence the capabilities above add up to.
A bill comes in
A vendor invoice for HVAC servicing is logged with its PDF, category, and cost center attached — no separate filing step.
Approval routes automatically
The expense moves to the right approver based on its category and amount, without anyone forwarding an email.
A budget cap flags early
Housekeeping supply spend crosses most of its monthly cap. The alert fires before the category goes over budget, not after.
A recurring bill posts itself
The month's internet and AMC bills, set up once as recurring expenses, post automatically without re-entry.
The ledger is already reconciled
Every approved expense has already posted to the general ledger, so month-end close is a review, not a data-entry exercise.

FAQ
Quick answers to what teams evaluating Facility Expense Automation ERP ask most.
Each expense category carries its own budget cap. As spend is logged against a category, Firmity compares it to the cap in real time and alerts before the category is breached, rather than reporting an overrun after the fact.
