Bill splitting & category segmentation

    Bill splitting is a new Veryfi feature that gives you the ability to segment a bill/receipt by different expense categories.

    You’re a small business owner who’s just made a purchase at your local Walmart. As you were buying some coffee for the office you realized you needed computer paper as well. Your receipt reflects two different business expenses 1. Meals & Entertainment (coffee) and 2. Office Supplies (printing paper). Now what? This is where Bill Splitting comes into play.

    After you have scanned your receipt using Veryfi mobile app, head into the Document Detail view to split the SKU (stock keeping unit) line items. Let’s define the coffee you purchased in the appropriate meal and entertainment category, while also allowing you to categorize the computer paper as an office supplies expense.
