The details

  • Category: Fuel, Mileage, Pet supplies, Insurance, Vehicle maintenance, Marketing, Office supplies, Vet supplies, Software, Equipment, Training or Other.

  • Team member: who the expense is for. It's you to start with. Only admins and sub-admins see this.

  • Reimbursed: turn it on once you've paid a team member back, and set the Reimbursed date. Only admins see this.

  • Attachments: up to 5 photos from your library, like receipts.

  • A vendor and an amount are both needed to save.
