What happens after upload

Once you upload expense documents, Zudello automatically processes them:

  • Document information is extracted and populated into expense fields
  • Your employee record is applied to the expense
  • Default settings for expense type, payment method, and coding are applied based on your profile
  • Expenses are automatically validated and any issues are flagged for review

This automatic processing significantly reduces the manual work required to submit your expenses.

After your expenses have been uploaded and processed automatically, you can review and submit your expense claims. For more information on this process, see Submitting expense claims.
