And here's a short video of the process

And remember...

Tip 1: All expenses require a receipt regardless of $ value

Tip 2: Please manually adjust the GST rate and/or amount in Expensify if it does not match the amount on the receipt (e.g. if there are GST free items).

Tip 3: Tag expenses only if you're cross charging

You home Cost Centre has already been set up in Expensify

  • If the expense is for your Cost Centre, leave the expense Untagged
  • If the expense is for another Cost Centre (i.e. you are cross-charging) then select the relevant Cost Centre from the drop down list

Tip 4: Create a separate report for each Cost Centre

Your expenses are sent to the owner of each Cost Centre for approval. For this process to work you will need to create a separate report for each Cost Centre.

How this works:

  • Follow the above instructions (SmartScan, Code and select a Cost Centre only if cross charging) then Expensify will create a monthly report and place all expenses on it 
  • If all expenses are for a single Cost Centre then you don't need to do anything, Expensify will submit your report for approval at the end of the month
  • If you have expenses for multiple Cost Centres, you will need to have one report for each Cost Centre. 
  • To create a new report, go to Reports and click New Report on the website or the + button on the mobile app (step 1 below)
  • Open the first expense with a different Cost Centre and change the report to the newly created one (step 2 below)
  • Repeat these steps until all expenses on each report are for the same Cost Centre
  • At the end of the month, each report will automatically submit to the relevant Cost Centre managers for approval.
