Indirect Accounting Integrations

Expensify supports both direct and indirect accounting integrations. If your accounting software isn’t directly integrated, you can still export expenses and reports using a flat-file import.

When you select an accounting package, Expensify automatically generates a relevant export template. This makes it easy to transfer your financial data to your accounting system.
