Duplicate a Report

Duplicate a Report

You can create a copy of an existing report and all of its non-card expenses using Duplicate report. This creates a new report with copies of all non-card expenses from the original, including each expense’s merchant, amount, category, tags, and tax. Expense dates are set to today and receipt images are not copied.

This is useful when you need to recreate a similar set of expenses such as recurring monthly reports.

If you only need to duplicate specific expenses, learn how to duplicate an expense.


Who can duplicate a report

Any member who created a report can duplicate it. Duplicate report is available for reports in any status, including Draft, Processing, Approved, Done, and Paid.

Each non-card expense on the original report is copied to the new report with the following details:

  • Merchant
  • Amount and currency
  • Category
  • Tags
  • Tax

The following details are not copied:

  • Date is set to today instead of the original date
  • Receipt images are not included on the duplicate expenses
