iOS: How to Create Expenses Follow

The Tallie iOS app allows users to track expenses on the go. Users can simply take a picture of their receipts at the point of purchase and upload it to the app, so they won’t have to worry about losing any important documentation. The app is available for download in the Apple App Store. This article will show you how to create expenses and enter receipts using the Tallie app. 

Creating Expenses

To create expenses in the Tallie iOS app, from any unsubmitted report, tap the Green + button at the bottom, and four options will appear. Simply tap on them or swipe left or right to begin:

Please note: It is expected that users on IOS devices will only be able to view their resubmitted, submitted, approved and rejected expenses. To do so, please click on the hamburger icon in the top right-hand corner of the mobile app next to ALL. 

Approved expenses can only be viewed when logged in on a web browser on a computer.
