When you activate the integration, your organization’s data is immediately available in Zoho Expense, so you can manage employee trips, expense reports, advances, and reimbursements without maintaining separate records. This integration is built for Zoho Billing customers who need to track and approve internal business expenses alongside their customer-facing billing workflows. ## Benefits of the Integration By integrating Zoho Billing with Zoho Expense, you can: * Use your Zoho Billing customers directly in Zoho Expense without adding them again. Employees can assign expenses to existing customers and projects from the moment the integration is active. * Mark employee expenses as billable in Zoho Expense and raise invoices for those costs in Zoho Billing without entering the same data twice. * View revenue data from Zoho Billing and cost data from Zoho Expense without exporting data manually. ## Set Up the Integration When you activate this integration, your Zoho Billing organization is linked to a Zoho Expense organization, making your billing data available to your expense management workflows. To set up the integration: * Click **Settings** in the top right corner of the page. * Select **Zoho Apps** under _Integrations & Marketplace_ in the _Extension and Developer Data_ pane. * Click **Try Now** next to _Zoho Expense_. * A new tab opens, showing a list of all existing Zoho Expense organizations associated with your Zoho account. * Click **Go to Organization** next to an existing Zoho Expense organization to link it directly, or click **New Organization** to create one. * If you clicked **New Organization**, enter the organization name and other required details, then click **Get Started**. Once the integration is active, you can open Zoho Expense directly from Zoho Billing at any time by clicking **Access** next to _Zoho Expense_ on the _Zoho Apps_ page. ## What You Can Access in Both Apps Your customers, projects, and billable expenses are kept in sync between Zoho Billing and Zoho Expense. Changes made in one app are automatically reflected in the other. Module Description **Customers** Customers are shared between Zoho Billing and Zoho Expense. Any changes made to a customer in either app are automatically reflected in the other. **Projects** Projects are shared between Zoho Billing and Zoho Expense. Changes made in either app are reflected in the other, so employees can always assign expenses to the correct project. **Billable Expenses** Expenses marked as billable in Zoho Expense are synced to Zoho Billing, where they can be [invoiced to the customer](/de-de/billing/help/expense/reimbursable-expense.html). **Insight:** The Expenses module in Zoho Billing lets you record and track business expenses for your own operations. Zoho Expense extends this with employee-facing features, including trips, expense reports, advances, corporate cards, approvals, and reimbursements. ## What You Can Do in Zoho Expense Zoho Expense adds employee expense management capabilities to Zoho Billing. Your existing organization, customer, and project data in Zoho Billing is available in Zoho Expense, so you don’t have to set them up again. Module Description **Expenses** Record individual business expenses with receipts, categorize them, and flag billable expenses to be charged to customers or projects. **Reports** Group individual expenses into an expense report and submit it for approval. Once approved, the report moves to reimbursement. **Trips** Manage employee business travel from start to finish, including travel requests, itineraries, and trip-related expense reports. **Advances** Issue cash advances to employees before a trip or expense event and reconcile them once the related expense report is submitted. **Batch Payments** Process reimbursements for multiple approved expense reports in a single payment run instead of handling them individually. **Corporate Cards** Assign corporate cards to employees, track card transactions, match them to submitted expenses, and identify policy violations or unsubmitted spend. **Budgets** Set spending limits for departments, projects, or cost centers and monitor actual spend against those limits in real time. **Analytics** View pre-built dashboards and reports covering spend by category, policy violations, top spenders, pending approvals, and reimbursement status.
