All Volopay users can split transactions into multiple line items to properly allocate different amounts to different accounts - category, department, location, or any custom fields you need.



How to split an expense?

To allow your employees to split transactions, you can head to Card Settings > General > Split expense (toggle at the bottom). Enable the split expense feature for your company.

Then open the expense slider, which you want to split, Once you've navigated to a expense, scroll to the section "Accounting" and click "Split". Add as many lines as you need.

  • Amounts must add up to the expense total.

  • Each line can be coded differently by category, department, location, and also any custom fields.

Splits can be updated in the table view to adjust amounts, categories, and other fields. However, a split expense can only be saved if all split lines are valid. Once a is split, it will be updated on your accounting dashboard by the merchant name.
