About the Expense Report
Expense reports are an audit trail, not a summary. Finance needs the date, the merchant, the category, the payment method and the amount for every line, plus a mileage log at the correct statutory rate.
OpenDocuHub totals expenses by category, computes mileage reimbursement at the IRS, CRA or HMRC rate, and can read a photo of a paper receipt with client-side OCR to prefill the claim. Nothing is uploaded.

Questions about expense report
What is the current IRS mileage rate?
The IRS publishes a standard business mileage rate each January. Enter the rate your policy uses - OpenDocuHub multiplies it by the recorded distance and totals the reimbursement.
Can I mix currencies in one claim?
Keep one currency per report for clean approval. Convert foreign receipts at the card's posted rate and note the original amount in the line notes.
Does the OCR send my receipt anywhere?
No. Tesseract runs as WebAssembly inside a Web Worker on your computer. The image never leaves the browser tab.
What receipts are required?
For most policies, receipts are required above a small threshold (often USD 25) and for all lodging and air travel. Mileage needs a log rather than receipts.
