Whenever you go to Lowes or Home Depot and buy a bunch of materials, you often will buy materials that belong to different categories.
For example, you may have bought plumbing fixtures, light fixtures, tile and paint all on one receipt. Technically those materials all need to be categorized to different categories.
Instead of entering all of those expenses separately, with the Split Expense functionality you can easily breakdown a receipt when you have multiple categories on a shared Receipt or Invoice.
Here's how it works:
Sales tax was always kind of an awkward item to categorize, Before you had to divvy up the sales tax and try to evenly distribute the tax across all of your items on the receipt.
But now with our new split tax functionality we can simply just add in the $173.86 to the sales tax amount to the receipt and our Expense Tracker will automatically divvy up the sales tax and evenly distribute it across all of our expense items.
