Expense management and payment approval software for organisations in Côte d'Ivoire.
Every payment approved, documented and posted, with its FNE on file.
Since December 2025, the DGI accepts only electronic standardised invoices (FNE) to justify expenses and deduct VAT, and the FNE is mandatory for all companies. Creodata keeps the FNE with the request, routes it through your approval chain and posts it to Business Central, so the evidence and the decision stay together.
Finance controls for organisations in Côte d'Ivoire, mapped to the system.
Internal audit, the DGI and donors ask the same questions of every payment: who authorised it, is the FNE on file, and does the ledger match? Each control maps to a capability of the expense management system.
Apply the delegated authority in your approval policy
Each supplier invoice, petty cash or cashbook payment routes through the chain set for its department and request type, for example Head of Department, Finance Reviewer and CFO, with an amount threshold deciding how requests are split.
Separate who asks, who approves and who pays
Submitter, Approver, Finance Reviewer, CFO and Admin are distinct roles with their own queues, and every user signs in through Microsoft Entra ID.
Keep the FNE behind every expense and VAT deduction
Every invoice and receipt is attached to its request and stored in SharePoint Online, linked to the approval and the ledger entry. Finance can require the FNE document before a request is approved. The system keeps the document; it does not connect to or validate against the tax authority's system.
Pay only what was approved
Payment follows final approval. M-Pesa B2C and B2B payment is built in for Kenya. Paying out over Orange Money, MTN MoMo, Moov Money, Wave, PI-SPI or your bank is an integration we scope with each organisation; approvals, documents and posting work the same either way.
Approvals within agreed timelines
Durable orchestration watches every pending approval and escalates overdue items to the next approver, recording the escalation against the request.
Books that match what was approved and paid
Approved items post to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central over OData with their SharePoint documents linked, so nobody re-keys a voucher.
Handle staff and supplier data under the Loi n° 2013-450 on personal data protection
Access is by role through Microsoft Entra ID, documents sit in SharePoint Online in your Microsoft 365 tenant, and each approval, escalation and posting is recorded against its request.
This maps software capability to common finance controls; it is not audit or tax advice. M-Pesa payment is built in for Kenya; other payment rails and ERPs are confirmed per organisation during scoping.

Frequently asked questions.
Is this expense management software available in Côte d'Ivoire?
Yes. Creodata is a Nairobi software company, and the system runs on Microsoft Azure, so organisations in Côte d'Ivoire use the same approval chains, SLA escalation, SharePoint documents and Business Central posting as Kenyan ones. Chains, request types and thresholds are configured per organisation.
Does it integrate with the DGI's FNE platform?
No. The system does not connect to the FNE platform or validate invoices. It keeps the FNE with each request, and finance can make that document a condition of approval, so every expense and VAT deduction has its evidence on file.
Can it pay over Orange Money, Wave or PI-SPI?
M-Pesa payment is built in for Kenya. In Côte d'Ivoire, payment over Orange Money, MTN MoMo, Moov Money, Wave, PI-SPI or your bank is an integration we scope with each organisation. Approvals, documents and Business Central posting work unchanged.
Is the website available in French?
Yes. This page and the main product pages are available in French, and we can take you through the system in French. Confirm the languages your users need in the application itself during scoping.
Can approval thresholds be set in CFA francs (XOF)?
Approval chains and the amount thresholds that split requests are configured per organisation. Our reference configuration is in Kenya shillings; confirm CFA francs (XOF) amounts, and any multi-currency or multi-entity set-up, with us during scoping.
Where is our data held?
The system runs on Microsoft Azure, and documents are stored in SharePoint Online in your own Microsoft 365 tenant. Access is by role through Microsoft Entra ID. Map this against your obligations under the Loi n° 2013-450 with your data protection officer before you go live.
How much does expense management software cost in Côte d'Ivoire?
We quote per organisation. The price depends on the number of users and entities, the request types and approval chains you need, and the integrations involved. Ask every vendor for a three-year total cost on the same basis, covering licences, implementation, payment and ERP integration, hosting and support, so the quotes can be compared.
