Spending Control for Finance Teams
for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Expenses and travel costs – automatically in the accounting system.
Finclair’s Circula Connector seamlessly integrates the leading expense management software Circula with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. Say goodbye to manual exports, duplicate data entry, and error-prone booking processes: Approved expenses are fully coded and ready for posting directly into your financial accounting system.
What is the Circula Connector?
Circula is a modern solution for travel expense and reimbursement that helps employees easily capture receipts via smartphone, document business trips, and calculate mileage allowances. What was missing until now: a direct, reliable connection to the ERP system.
The Finclair Circula Connector closes this gap. The extension is fully integrated into Business Central and automatically transfers approved expense reports to the Circula Expense Buffer – from there, the entries are transferred to the general ledger journal and posted with a single click.
From approved receipt to booking
Only approved and verified expenses will be transferred – including original receipts.

This is how the process works
Data collection by employees
- KI-Autofill: Upload a photo of the receipt – Circula automatically recognizes the amount, date and merchant.
- Travel expenses:
- Mileage allowance: Enter start and destination addresses, select vehicle type – distance and amount are calculated immediately.
- Project booking: Expenses can be directly assigned to a project for precise cost center allocation.
Step 1: Receipt capture with AI autofill
Approval & Controlling in Circula
- Responsible supervisors review and approve expenditures in the Approve & Control area.
- The controlling team filters and processes pending entries in a targeted manner.
- Approved documents automatically receive the status “Exported” and are ready for BC transfer.
Step 2: Approval & Export
Automatic transfer to Business Central
- Approved entries appear in the Circula Expense Buffer in Business Central – fully structured.
- Expense type, amount, currency, receipt date and employee data are transferred directly.
- Process Entry: Automatically generates correct journal entries with vendor account and general ledger account (e.g., 4660 – Employee travel expenses).
- Original receipts remain accessible at any time from BC via Circula Receipt & Details.
Step 3: Circular Expense Buffer in Business Central
