What you’ll accomplish

Attach a Capture image to an expense only when you explicitly enable Keep receipt in Nestiva.

How to do it

  1. Capture the image

    Use a photo that supports an expense suggestion.

  2. Review the expense

    Verify the extracted amount, date, currency, and category.

  3. Enable Keep receipt

    Choose to retain the photo with this expense.

  4. Create the item

    Nestiva saves the record and uploads the receipt attachment.

  5. Watch the result

    If upload fails, the expense remains saved and Nestiva reports the attachment failure.

Before you finish

Check that you are in the intended Personal or household workspace and review the saved result. Nestiva keeps each workspace separate so the same action can produce different records or settings depending on the active space.
