Japanese to English
Bus/Financial

Hi everyone,
I have run into this expression multiple times in different documents, and am not sure on how to render 執行.
Payment? Disbursement? Execution (gasp!)?
Any suggestions would be welcome.
TIA.

payment of expenses
I think "payment of expenses" is the most natural sounding. "Administration of expenses" is another option but I think this is more vague and leaves room for misinterpretation.

"Settlement of payables' is not.
Wouldn't the latter be preferable? :-)
