The whole trip of an expense, in one app

Xpense follows a receipt from the moment it's paid to the moment it's in the books: capture, approval, payment and posting, with the right person doing each step.

For employees

A receipt takes seconds

A quick expense for one receipt, or an expense book for a trip or a month.

  • Take a photo, add a PDF (one line per receipt found) or paste an e-mailed receipt
  • The place, date, amount, taxes and the vendor's GST/QST numbers are read for you
  • Your usual places remember their category
  • Mileage by distance or odometer, at your company's rate
  • See where each report is, and answer questions from approvers

For approvers

Your queue, and nothing else

Reports arrive in order, with the receipts and the history of each one.

  • The employee's supervisor, then up to three levels you choose
  • Approve, send back with a reason, or ask a question
  • Approve a different amount than claimed; the reason is kept
  • A notice and an e-mail when something waits for you

For accounting

Categories map to your GL accounts, and taxes are split out by province.

  • The approved-expenses grid with your choice of columns, to Excel
  • Journal entries with GST/HST, QST and other taxes on their own accounts
  • Correct a category, date or account; every correction is logged
  • Accounts payable marks reports paid with the payment reference

Approved expenses with GL accounts
For owners and managers

See spending before it surprises you

Dashboards by category and person, budgets by GL account and person, and monthly allowances.

  • An allowance shows when it will run out at the current pace
  • Year over year, month by month
  • Roles you define: who approves, who corrects, who pays
  • Your own e-mail wording, in three languages
