In today's economy, businesses are looking at ways to curb excess spending. Ensuring employee expenses adhere to company policies is crucial, but controlling expenses is best done without compromising the employee's purchasing experience. To achieve this, Zoho Expense has integrated Amazon Business Punch-in and Punchout solutions to enhance the employee purchasing process, provide finance teams with the control and visibility they need, and automate accounting processes. The solutions are available in the US, with plans to expand to other countries from 2025 onwards.
