Workflow & Forwarding

Find past invoices and receipts in your email

Switching to Expensent does not mean starting from today. Scan your inbox history month by month or quarter by quarter — across previous years — then forward what you still need to your accounting software.

Each result shows its next step, just like new mail

How it works

1

Pick the inbox to search

Choose the account that likely received the older invoices and start a scan.

2

See what turns up

Expensent surfaces the receipts hiding in your history and groups them by what to do next.

3

Forward or tidy up

Send the ones you still need to QuickBooks, Xero, Expensify, or your accountant, and leave the rest behind.

Catch up without the archaeology

Filter the haystack

Search by vendor or subject, and filter by document type and connected account to find the receipts you are after.

Preview before you send

Confirm an older email is the right document with a full preview of the message and its files.

Portal invoices flagged

When a receipt lives behind a vendor portal, Expensent flags it so you know to grab the file.

Common questions

How far back can I search my inbox?

Pick a month or quarter and move back year by year. Expensent scans that period in the connected inbox you choose, then puts the results in the same review queue as new mail.

Do past invoices use the same review workflow?

Yes. Recovered receipts land in the Action Center with the same next-step tabs — ready to forward, needs a portal download, or needs review — so you handle old and new receipts the same way.

Reclaim the receipts you already have

Connect an inbox and recover the invoices waiting in your history in a single scan.
