Get started with Expense

Start Expense for your business, record your first expense and invite your team.

Ellibo Expense is where your team records what they spend for the business. Each expense keeps its receipt, expenses go into a report, the report is approved, and the business pays the person back. It all happens in the same books as your invoices, with nothing to export.

Set up Expense

1. Open Expense from My Apps.
2. Choose a business you already run on Ellibo and click Start Expense, or create a new business.

You start with a 14-day free trial with every feature unlocked. After that the Free plan has 3 users.

Your first expense

1. On Home, click Snap your first receipt (or + New expense).
2. Take a photo of the receipt, or drop a photo or PDF on the page.
3. Choose the category and type the amount on the receipt. See Record an expense.

Then

• Put your expenses in a report and send it for approval. See Expense reports.
• Invite your team and choose who approves whose reports. See Users and roles.
• Check the categories and the accounts they book to. See Expense settings.

Home

• My unreported expenses, reports awaiting approval and what the business owes you.
• Approvers see the reports waiting for their approval; finance sees what is to pay back.
• Spend by category and spent vs paid back by month, with Pending actions and Recent activities on the right.
