🧾 How do I code a transaction?
You can code transactions in two ways, but make sure your budget is uploaded first!
📌 Without a budget, you won’t be able to code your transactions. Even a simple expense budget will do!
✍️ Option 1: Code directly in the table
Go to Transactions → Vendors & Contractors / P-Card / Other Expenses
In the table, locate the "Category" column
Click into the dropdown to select a code from your uploaded budget
🔍 Option 2: Code from the Review screen
Click the eye icon 👁️ on the transaction
Scroll to the Categories table
Click the dropdown in the Category column to assign your code
➗ Can I split the code for a transaction (multi-category coding)?
Yes! You can split one transaction into multiple account lines 🎯
Steps:
Click the eye icon 👁️ on the transaction
Scroll to the Categories table
Click “+ Add Item” (bottom right) to add more rows
Enter different codes and amounts for each row
💡 Perfect for invoices or receipts that span multiple departments or budget lines.
📤 How do I upload invoices and estimates?
📂 Option 1: Upload via Transactions tab
Go to the Transactions page → click “Upload & Scan”

➕ How do I do multi-category coding for one transaction?
This is the same as splitting a transaction! Here's the quick recap:

Click the eye icon 👁️ on the transaction
In the Categories table, click “+ Add Item” to create new lines

Open the transaction (click the eye icon)
Adjust the amounts in the Categories table so they match the full transaction total
