Questions for growing companies
Does more visibility require giving everyone the same role?
No. Existing roles and granular permission checks distinguish viewing from protected changes and approvals.
Will OwnCents automatically pay a reviewed bill?
No. It can record eligible externally executed settlement evidence; it does not initiate or distribute payments.
Availability depends on plan, permissions and configured data. OwnCents does not provide professional accounting, tax, legal or investment advice.
