PaperLess Expenses – Smart Receipt Capture Software

What Is PaperLess Expenses?

PaperLess Expenses is our newly launched automated receipt capture and expense approval platform. PaperLes is designed specifically for accounts teams who need complete control over company expenditure.

Unlike standalone expense apps that require users to manually update account codes, tax codes, currencies and payment terms – not to mention the manual import of Excel files with the expenses into the accounting software – PaperLess is fully integrated with leading accounting systems including Sage 50, Sage 200, Sage Intacct, SAP Business One, Xero, and Orderwise, ensuring your expense data flows directly into your financial records without manual intervention.

This isn’t just another expense app, it’s a complete rethinking of how businesses should handle receipt processing in 2026.

Smart Receipt Capture: Submit Expenses Anytime, Anywhere

Mobile Expense Capture Made Simple

We’ve designed PaperLess Expenses to meet the demands of modern, mobile workforces. When you start using PaperLess Expenses, you can say good bye to the days of collecting crumpled receipts in wallets and desk drawers. With our new mobile app for expense processing, employees can capture receipts instantly by simply taking a picture of the receipts with their mobile phone.

PaperLess offers an intelligent receipt scanning technology that automatically extracts key information from receipts. This data includes dates, amounts, and vendor details, making expense submission effortless. Yes, that is right… whether your team is working from the office, travelling for business, or working remotely with PaperLess Expenses they can process all their receipts and create expense claims directly from their mobile phones.

Web-Based Expense Submission

For desktop users, our web-based platform offers equally powerful receipt capture capabilities. This is an important aspect of PaperLess Expenses, because not all users want to process receipts via their mobile phones. That is why, with PaperLess, users can also upload receipt images directly through the web browser. Then PaperLess’s advanced optical character recognition (OCR) technology populate expense details automatically.

With a dual-platform approach, PaperLess ensures every team member can submit expenses using their preferred method. Such approach maximises adoption and compliance from day one.

Automated Expense Approval Workflow

Eliminate Email Chaos and Lost Receipts

Traditional email-based expense approval systems are inefficient, error-prone, and difficult to audit. With the launch of this new expense processing software, PaperLess is replacing the outdated process of sending receipts for approval via email with a powerful software that offers as approval workflow purposely built for this that enables users to track every receipt and claim through a clear, auditable trail.

Finance managers and department heads can review and authorise expenses from either the web platform or mobile app, ensuring approvals never bottleneck due to someone being out of the office.

Real-Time Visibility and Control

Our new dashboard lets you see everything about your cost approval queue in real time. You can see expenses that need to be approved, items that have been flagged for review, and claims that have been approved but are still waiting to be posted. This openness ensures ensuring that everyone follows the rules of the organisation and speeds up the process of getting things authorised. PaperLess speeds up the approval of receipts so that employees get their reimbursements faster and finance teams can see cash flow more clearly.

Automatic Creation of Expense Claims

You Can Now Say Goodbye to Spreadsheet Hell

Making a manual expense claim takes a lot of effort and is easy to make mistakes on. PaperLess Expenses now automatically makes expense claims from receipts that have been sent in. This means that staff don’t have to keep their own Excel spreadsheets or fill out paper forms anymore. This automation makes things easier for administrators and makes data more accurate by getting rid of mistakes that happen when people write things down by hand

Multiple Ways to Submit Claims

PaperLess Expenses is meant to be flexible from the ground up. Users can either send in each receipt separately for quick approval or put together all of their monthly spending into one big claim. This flexibility lets businesses change the system to fit their own policies and workflows. The software automatically makes claim previews that show approvers all the receipts that are part of each expense claim form. This makes the review process easier from the very beginning.

Seamless Integration with Your Accounting Software

Native Integration with Leading Platforms

One of the most exciting features of our new platform is how it integrates with your existing systems. PaperLess Expenses isn’t a bolt-on solution that requires a complex set-up where you need to be setting up all the defaults you already have in your accounting software or, even worse, where you need to be manualy importing excel files that always give you an error due to some weird mismatch.

PaperLess Expenses is natively compatible with your accounting programme, automatically posting authorised expenses directly into Sage 50, Sage 200, Sage Intacct, SAP Business One, Xero, or Orderwise. This tight integration ensures account codes, tax codes, and department allocations are readdirectly from your accounting system, eliminating coding errors and ensuring consistency.

Live Data Access from Your Accounting Software

With PaperLess Expenses, Finance teams can easily lookup receipts and expense claims directly from within the accounting software without switching between systems. But there is more, since many times users submitting expenses do not have access to the accounting software, they can also retrieve old expenses directly from within PaperLess. This seamless experience means you can instantly verify claims, retrieve receipt images, and match transactions during your normal accounting workflows, dramatically improving efficiency during month-end close and audit preparation.

Complete Financial Control and Visibility

Centralised Expense Management Dashboard

With the launch of PaperLess Expenses, finance managers gain unprecedented control over company expenditure through a single, comprehensive dashboard showing the entire expense lifecycle. Monitor expenses as they’re created, track receipts pending approval, view queries raised during the approval process, and access complete historical records of submitted and paid claims. This centralised view ensures nothing falls through the cracks whilst providing the transparency needed for effective budget management.

Audit-Ready Compliance

Maintaining comprehensive audit trails is critical for finance teams. Our new platform automatically documents every step of the expense process, from initial receipt capture through final posting to your accounts. This complete documentation ensures compliance with internal policies and provides auditors with clear, accessible records when needed.

Automated receipt capture and expense claim creation eliminate hours of manual data entry each month. Streamlined approval workflows reduce approval cycle times from weeks to days.
