The view is that only Promotion prevented them breaching FFP

"The above suggests that the Albion were probably at their limit in terms of complying with the FFP rules in 2016/17, and would probably have had to make some player sales in 2017/18 in order to ensure they satisfied the three year figure of £39 million."

In the ways when a few clubs were still spending only what they had, Brentford, Bournemouth and BHA all maxed out to to achieve their goals.
