Pro-Tips Monday: Multi-Page Receipts
Managing multi-page PDF receipts in Expensify is simple. To begin, just upload them as you would usually (forward to receipts@expensify.com or upload them to the site). Once uploaded, you are free to attach the PDF to an expense much like any receipt image. You’ll notice that the thumbnail image in Expensify only displays the first page; don’t worry, we’ve got the other pages too.
In order to view all receipt pages just open the ‘Edit Expense/Receipt’ window and click the ‘download’ button below the image. This will open the receipt, in its entirety, in another tab in your web browser.
Alternatively, select the ‘Include full page images in PDF’ option on your report before printing a PDF and you’ll be able to view all pages of a receipt in the resulting PDF.
If you have any further multi-page questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us at help@expensify.com and we’ll get them smoothed out.
Accounting is not a fan of this feature… It seems like extra steps (downloading, opening, closing) when you could make it show all pages (either w/ left/right arrows or scrolling, or any number of options). They just need a quick visual that we didn’t buy things we’re not supposed to.
Also, the ability to add an expense via the credit card and an image of the receipt would be nice (and have the CC proof there as well).
Better than not being able to do multipages? Yes.

Hey Matt,
Thanks for the feedback on multi-page viewing. I’ve shared it with our web team to see what we can do to support it.
You can import your credit card transactions automatically into Expensify and attach a receipt image for further documentation. To import your card, follow the directions on our Import page. Attaching a receipt is as simple as opening your imported credit card expense, clicking the ‘Attach receipt’ button and selecting your receipt image.
If you have any questions going forward, please feel free to contact help@expensify.com and we’ll be glad to help!

Multi-page viewing would be a solid addition. We have this problem too.
Something like crocodoc.com has.
