Add details to a new expense receipt, or modify an existing expense receipt prior to submitting it.

1. Select Employee Tools > Expenses.
2. In your list of Receipts Pending Submission, locate the expense receipt that you want to modify.
   Tip: On the Receipts Pending Submission page, you can drag and drop attachments to add them to pending expense receipts in the list.
3. To bulk code a group of expense receipts at once:
   1. In the Receipts Pending Submission grid, select the checkboxes for all receipts to bulk code.
      Important: Bulk coding applies to the selected receipts and all of the expense items on those receipts. If any of the selected receipts are already coded, your bulk coding selections will overwrite that existing coding.
   2. Select the Code button in the Receipts Pending Submission header.
   3. In the Code Update window, choose the applicable coding for the selected receipts and their associated expense items.
   4. Select Save.
4. To code an individual expense receipt, select the Edit button for that receipt in the Receipts Pending Submission grid.

   The Edit Expense Receipt page opens.

5. In Transaction Date, enter the date that the expense occurred.

   This field defaults to today's date. If you are entering an expense for a prior date, be sure to change this field.

6. If this expense receipt is for an unreconciled credit card transaction, use the Match to Credit Card dropdown in the upper right of the page to select the credit card transaction to link to this receipt.

   The Expense Admin imports credit card transactions into the system so that users can code and submit them for approval. See Manage Credit Card Expenses for more details.

7. Select a Reimbursement Mode. The reimbursement modes available options are determined by your administrator. Some or all of the following options may display:

   • Expense: Choose a Unit of Measure, and, if applicable, a Unit Cost and Qty (Quantity). Then enter the Total Amount of the expense.

   • Mileage: Enter the distance (miles or kilometers) and the amount will auto calculate based on the rate set by your administrator.

   • Entertainment: Allows you to select a customer (from the AR Customer list in Vista) and Unit of Measure. You can also enter the number of attendees, attendee names, and other details.

8. Select Save to save header information.

   The first line item automatically fills with the header information.

9. In the lower section of the Edit Expense Receipt page, you can modify an existing expense item or add new expense items to the receipt:
   1. To modify an existing expense item on a receipt, select Edit for that item.
   2. To add a new expense item to the receipt, select Add New Item.

      

      Note: If you add multiple expense items to a receipt, you can charge the Total Amount on the receipt to different jobs, GL accounts, or other available line types. The total for all items on the expense receipt must be in balance with the Total Amount on the receipt before you can submit the receipt for approval. See Submit Expense Receipts for Approval for details.
   3. To add a note to an existing expense item, or to copy or delete an existing item, select the dropdown arrow next to the Edit button.

      

10. When you select to edit or add an expense item, the coding section for that expense item opens. You modify the Coding Type as needed. The Coding Type that you select determines the other fields that display in this section.

    

    The coding types available are determined by your administrator. Some or all of the following types may display:

    • Job: Allows you to code by Job, Phase, and Cost Type.
    • Expense: Allows you to code your expense to a GL Company and GL Account if your expenses are processed via AP or an Earn Code if your expenses are processed via Payroll.
    • Equipment: Allows you to code by Equipment, Cost Code, EMC Type, Comp Type, and Component.
    • EM Work Order: Allows you to code by Work Order, Work Order Item, and EMC Type.
    • Purchase Order (PO): Allows you to code by purchase order and PO items.
      Note: If the item is from a credit card, users see only the purchase orders that are written to the vendor associated with the credit card. If the item is a reimbursement, users see only the purchase orders that are written to the vendor associated with the employee.
    • SM Work Order: Allows you to code by SM Work Order, Scope, and SM Cost Type.
11. To add attachments, select the Add Attachment+ button. You can attach files to the header or to individual expense items. Alternatively, you can drag and drop attachments to either the header or an individual expense item.

       You can browse through multiple attachments, or add, download, delete, or edit an attachment (crop and rotate).

       

12. When you are finished modifying or adding an expense item, select Save Changes.
13. After saving an expense item, attachments display at the bottom of the Edit Expense Receipt page in their own separate section. You can continue to manage these attachments using the attachment editor controls or by selecting Edit for an individual expense item:

    Important: Expense receipts cannot be edited once they are submitted.

    If you are able to submit receipts directly from the Edit Expense Receipt, the Submit button is available only if the total for all expense items is in balance with the total amount on the receipt. Depending on your portal setup, you may be required to select a reviewer before submitting an expense.
