UPLOADING RECEIPTS TO THE RECEIPTS POOL

The Receipt Pool allows users to upload receipts to the system in advance so they can be attached at a later time.

Your company will determine if receipts should be attached at the Billing Cycle Level or at the Transaction Level. If the button says, “Upload Receipts," then your company uses Transaction Level receipts. If it says Receipt Pool, your company uses Billing Cycle Level receipts.

Note: If there is no button at all, then either your company is not configured for attaching receipts or your company Administrator may have
locked the cycle so no more receipts can be added. Check with your Administrator to verify how long after the cycle close date receipts can still
be attached.

UPLOADING RECEIPTS FROM A PHONE

Note: If your company uses Transaction Level Receipts, you will need to use a computer or tablet to match the receipts from the Receipt
Pool to the transactions.
