This is usually handled much more elegantly by senior academic staff.
You contact a department who’s services you use a lot, then you arrange to pre-pay for services. Ideally you negotiate a discount.
Then you use the service and state which grant to draw from.
This way you have grants paying for things that are completely unrelated to their intent, you have one nightmare of a billing system which no one understands and you get to use everybody cent.
