Expensify allows workspace admins to create budgets to: | ||
- Set monthly and yearly budget caps | ||
- Track spending across categories and tags | ||
- Get notified when a budget reaches a certain limit | ||
|
||
You can set budgets for specific categories and/or tags. | ||
- **Category budgets**: Add budgets for different expense types like fees, office supplies, travel, meals and entertainment, and more. | ||
- **Tag budgets**: Add budgets for different departments, projects, locations, cost centers, customers, etc. | ||
|
||

Budgets can only be added to Control workspaces. This feature is not available for Collect workspaces. | ||
