Receipts help keep your accounting clean and exports complete.
Transactions without receipts:
- Cannot be fully categorized
- May delay accounting review
- May not export properly to your accounting system
💡 Best practice: Review missing receipts regularly to avoid cleanup work later.
Using the Dashboard
When opening the "Card" page in [me], it will automatically display the "Transactions" tab.
*Reminder that Admins can see all transactions, cardholders can only see their transactions.
Filter and Search
- To quickly see transactions in a certain date range, or to filter by Status, use the drop down menu options.
- Transactions without a receipt are automatically flagged with a "Missing Receipt" status
- Once a receipt is uploaded, the transaction status updates to "Complete".
To review a transaction, find the transaction you want to review and click into the transaction to view details.
Uploading Receipts
When a cardholder makes a purchase with their card, they can opt-in (through their personal user settings) to receive a text notification, offering an initial reminder to upload the receipt.
As long as the receipt date falls within 3 days of the transaction date, the receipt will auto-match to the card transaction.
To Upload the Receipt:
- Respond to the text message with a picture of the receipt
- Upload the receipt through the normal [me] channels:
- Use the [me] app to take a picture
- Email it using your store's dedicated @meinvoices email address
- Upload it from the Orders page within the web app
PRO TIP: If for some reason the receipt date is more than 3 days before or after the transaction date, after submitting the receipt, you can open the Order in MarginEdge and edit the date to force an auto-match.
Common Questions
Will I get an alert to let me know I'm missing a receipt?
The cardholder can opt-in to receive a text message when the transaction is made. You can enable this from your user settings.
As a cardholder, you can respond to that message with the receipt image, or upload it through the [me] app or dedicated email address. All transactions with missing receipts can be viewed from the card dashboard. After this first message, there are no additional messages or notifications for missing receipts.
I don't want to create a new vendor for every little purchase, I just want category-level expenses.
If you want to be able to have a generic vendor that can absorb various category-level expenses, please reach out to help@marginedge.com. Let us know you want to be able to have a generic vendor for MarginEdge Card purchases. Once you have that vendor, you can create a manual category-level invoice within [me], and when you use the same date as the transaction date, it will auto-match and mark as "Complete".
What if my transaction was charged to the wrong [me] store?
If a transaction landed in the wrong unit and you have [me] access to both locations, you can move it from within the order itself.
- Go to Orders in the navigation bar
- Select the order
- Click "More Actions" button at the bottom of the screen
- Select "Move Invoice" and choose the appropriate locaiton
