Expense management software for Ugandan organisations.
Every payment approved, documented and posted, with its EFRIS invoice on file.
In Uganda, an expense that is not backed by an EFRIS e-invoice or e-receipt, where the supplier must issue one, cannot be claimed for input VAT or deducted for income tax. Creodata keeps the invoice 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 Ugandan organisations, mapped to the system.
Internal audit, the URA and donors ask the same questions of every payment: who authorised it, is the EFRIS invoice 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 EFRIS invoice or receipt behind every claimed expense
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 EFRIS 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 MTN MoMo, Airtel Money 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 Data Protection and Privacy Act 2019
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 Uganda?
Yes. Creodata is a Nairobi software company, and the expense management system runs on Microsoft Azure, so Ugandan organisations 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 URA EFRIS?
No. The system does not connect to EFRIS or validate invoices against it. It keeps the EFRIS e-invoice or e-receipt with each request, and finance can make that document a condition of approval, so every claimed expense has its evidence on file.
Can it pay staff and suppliers over MTN MoMo or Airtel Money?
M-Pesa payment is built in for Kenya. In Uganda, payment over MTN MoMo, Airtel Money or your bank is an integration we scope with each organisation. Approvals, documents and Business Central posting work unchanged.
Can approval thresholds be set in Uganda shillings?
Approval chains and the amount thresholds that split requests are configured per organisation. Our reference configuration is in Kenya shillings; confirm Uganda shillings 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 Data Protection and Privacy Act 2019 with your data protection officer before you go live.
How much does expense management software cost in Uganda?
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.
