Scanner Pro launches new Expense Report, simplifying expense reporting for small businesses

Jun 15, 2023

Scanner Pro by Readdle, the best iPhone and iPad scanner app, has launched a new Expense Report feature.

It follows a survey of over 6,000 users by Scanner Pro* that reveals over a third of users do not have access to an expense report platform (like Expensify), and regularly face the laborious task of scanning their receipts, uploading them manually into a spreadsheet and then emailing relevant receivers.

Expense Report is designed to help small business owners, freelancers and solopreneurs stay on top of their paperwork, saving time and admin headaches.

It curates the expense flow by automatically scanning and detecting receipts and extracting all needed details into an automatic Expense Report, available as a PDF or CSV.

Instead of the tiring process of typing all the details into an Excel spreadsheet, Scanner Pro automatically captures all key information from your receipts needed to create an expense report. This includes the date, vendor, amount, tax, currency, and type of expense.

It is so quick it can be done with a few taps on the app between meetings, and everything could be saved on your iCloud indefinitely. In particular, this feature is the new must-have productivity tool for business people who are networking and traveling, and require good expense management on the go.

Our survey also finds that while almost half of users (42.4%) scan receipts every week, key areas of stress and annoyance include:

Filling in information (manually) about receipts - a third (29.3%) Editing receipts and scans (cropping, removing shadows and ensuring text is crisp) - one in four (22.9%) Capturing receipts on the go (taxis, hotels) - 17.7%

Expense Report has been designed as a streamlined option for those wishing to simplify their digital paperwork in this context.

Benefits include:

Scrapping the laborious process of uploading expenses manually to spreadsheets. Instead, Scanner Pro automatically captures all key information from your receipts needed to build an expense report. Speeding up your expenses management: the creation, editing, and sharing of scans takes minutes and can be easily done between client meetings. Building better accounting habits: Scanner Pro gets you into the habit of scanning your receipts as you go, which means not losing your paperwork and circling back to vendors for help. Safe storage: all of your financial data can be safely backed up in your iCloud indefinitely, which means even a belated tax audit won’t cause issues. Creating professional-looking and easy-to-read Expense report PDFs docs, that you can share instantly with clients and your team.

Furthermore, our survey finds that while receipts and bills have been the most scanned documents during the last six months (74%), legal and medical documents come a close second (61.7%).

Interestingly enough, around one in five potentially sentimental Scanner Pro users (21.2%) have been busy scanning photos and old family documents; while 37.9% scanned those all-important passports, credit cards and ID documents. What’s more, an artistic few (6.7%) have been busy scanning music scores.
