Expenses & receipts: Failure to export reports for tax records
Users are facing difficulties in exporting expense reports for tax records, leading to the need for manual log creation. Additionally, the automated camera function complicates the process, and the web version's limitations render the tool ineffective for reporting purposes.
6 different people have complained about this since 23 Feb 2018, most recently on 09 Sept 2026.
“Lately they’ve added this automated camera function that can potentially insert the data into the expense report however it takes over the camera with blue flashing rectangles that are annoying and obnoxious and make it…”
“With out the report I will have to create a log by hand to submit for work.”
“It’s frustrating when you load many many receipts and they do not directly download into the expense report.”
