Organising expenses
Categories, tags, projects, rules and the other ways to keep expenses in order.
Use categories
How expenses are classified, and how they reach your books and your tax summary.
Use tags
Labels that cut across categories, such as departments, locations and cost centers.
Track projects and clients
See what each job costs, and name who it is for.
Add custom fields to expenses
Hold extra details your expenses need, such as a PO number or a site.
Set up workspace rules
Teach PaperTotal what to do with a merchant once, and it files every receipt after that.
Make your own rules
Rules that are yours alone, and run on your own expenses.
Clean up merchants
Set a merchant's default category, and merge different spellings into one.
Expenses in another currency
Each expense keeps the currency on its receipt, and totals report in your base currency.
Add details and comments to an expense
Line items, attendees, tags, notes and comments.
Delete or duplicate an expense
A deleted expense stays on record and leaves every total.
Set budgets
Put a limit on a category, a tag or a person, and hear about it before it is spent.
Keep business cards as contacts
Add a photo of a business card and PaperTotal reads it into a contact.
Share your documents with someone
Let someone in the workspace read your documents, ask to read theirs, or both.
