02 — How it works
Expense reports usually fail in the gap between "I have receipts somewhere" and "finance can reconcile this." This tool keeps the structure straight: every line is dated, categorised, tagged, and totalled. Submission becomes a one-click PDF instead of a Friday-afternoon panic.
One row per receipt: date, vendor, description, category, payment method, amount, tax, receipt ref. Tag reimbursable / billable / project code per line.
Cash advance drawn before the trip is netted against the reimbursable subtotal. Pick the approver block (manager or finance).
PDF: branded header, claimant + approver block, line-item table with category pills, totals with reimbursable & billable splits, by-category and by-payment breakdowns, signature block. XLSX with 4 sheets.
03 — Built for finance
Travel, lodging, meals, transport, fuel, office, software, comms, training, entertainment, other. Each gets its own colour pill on the PDF and rolls up in the breakdown.
Per-line checkbox. Personal coffee on a business trip stays in the report but never enters the reimbursable subtotal. Auditors love it.
Tag lines as billable with a project code. The PDF shows a "billable to client" total under the net due — easy invoice-back to the client.
Subtract a pre-trip advance from the reimbursable subtotal. The net-due figure is what finance actually pays out.
Two breakdown tables on the PDF: spend by category (with %) and spend by payment method (corp card / personal / cash / UPI).
PDF: branded header, claimant + approver block, line-item table with category pills, totals, breakdowns, dual signature. XLSX: Summary, Line items, By category, By payment.

04 — Common questions
The Tracker Sheet is for ongoing logging — every business expense as it happens, across the year. This Expense Report Generator is for a single claim or trip: you take a slice of receipts, categorise them, and produce a PDF for approval and reimbursement. Many teams use both: log everything in the tracker, then export a slice into a report when reimbursement time comes.
Anything paid out-of-pocket by the employee on a company-approved expense (travel, client meals, software bought personally, etc.). What doesn't count: personal items, items already paid on a corporate card (the company already paid the vendor), or items outside the approved policy. Each line gets its own reimbursable checkbox so you can include policy-edge items but flag them clearly.
An expense that you'll later charge back to a client. Common on consulting and professional-services engagements where travel or out-of-pocket project costs are billed at cost (sometimes with a markup) on the client invoice. Tag the line as billable, attach the project code, and the PDF shows a total billable amount separately from the reimbursable total.
Yes — that's why the field exists. If you drew a INR 15,000 advance before the trip and the reimbursable subtotal is INR 46,000, the net due to you from finance is INR 31,000 (and you don't return any of the advance separately). If the advance was larger than the actual spend, the net-due goes negative and you owe the company the difference.
Yes, separately. The PDF report is the categorised summary that finance approves. Most policies require scanned receipts (or the original paper) attached or filed alongside the report for audit. The receipt-ref field on each line lets you cross-reference the original.
