Review project expenses in the web portal

Open a project's expenses in the web portal to check each receipt against its extracted lines, catch mismatches and watch the project total build.

Every expense captured on the phones appears in the project's Expenses view in the web portal, with the receipt image and the extracted line items side by side—so the office can check the maths before a cost is recharged.
  1. 01

    Open the Expenses view

    In the web portal, open the project and go to the Products tab, then switch from Products to Expenses to see every expense filed against the job.

    The SiteSurvey web portal on a project's Products tab with the Products and Expenses toggle.
  2. 02

    Open an expense

    Select an expense to review it—the receipt photograph and the extracted line items sit side by side, with the supplier, category and space it was filed against.

  3. 03

    Check the maths

    SiteSurvey compares the extracted lines with the total on the receipt. If they do not add up, the difference is flagged on the expense—so a misread price is caught before the cost is recharged or invoiced.

  4. 04

    Track the project total

    Expenses roll into a running project total built from real receipts, so spend on the job is visible while it is still running rather than after the invoice has gone out.

  5. 05

    Generate the expense report

    Produce the project's expense report whenever you need it—the itemised lines, totals and receipt images in one document, ready to invoice against, recharge or hand to the accountant.

Good to know

  • A mismatch flag means the lines and the receipt total disagree—open the receipt image and check for a misread or missing row before approving the cost.
  • The receipt image stays linked to the expense and lives in the project's Files tab, so the evidence is always with the figure for audits and client recharges.
