Attach a Document to an Expense Report
You can upload and attach documents, such as receipts, to your expense reports. This allows you to track your expense items and keep all associated documents in one place.
This feature is available if Vision is configured to allow you to upload and attach documents to certain types of transactions and if the expense report is editable.
You can select documents that are specific to each expense line or attach the same document to multiple expense lines on your expense report. When uploading receipts, this backs up the receipts online and makes them available for your expense report through the approval and payment process.
To attach a document to an expense report, complete the following steps:
- From the Vision Navigation menu, click .
- Open an expense report file and add a transaction line on the grid.
- On the General tab, click the button in the Document column. The Supporting Document dialog box displays. You can select one or more documents to associate with one or more expense items.
