Hotel bills

    Hotel bills

    I am a new bee to the NEAT Receipts. Got one for Christmas and trying to use.

    Couldn't scan anything till I reversed the Calibration sheet (instructions say keep up to see arrows).

    Scanned one receipt 6 times and get 4 different extracts. Scan a restaurant receipt get category Meals/Restaurant and get a tax category of automobile (first on list on tax category listing) you would think it would find "meals" in the list. The receipt has tip written in yet the scan wont match (even using tip % table) So this is a manual input (no time saver)

    Ok now to Hotel bills from Hyatt. The bill has 7 columns (Date, Department, Reference, Voucher, room, Debit, Credit. The billing is Room posting, State Tax, County Tax. So one day is 3 lines. When scanned in I get Vendor(Hyatt) Category(lodging/hotel) Receipt date (arrival date not bill date), PaymentType(MC) Sales Tax (only 1 state tax) Amount (My Room number) Tax Category (Auto - Default)

    So the total is 619.00 (again my room number) yet the bill is 99/night +4.95 State +3.96 County Tax for 9 days or 971.19. So much for a time saver.

    Is there some way to have the scan (visual scan is OK data all there) post properly??

     
    No manual to refer to (removed from the web) (www.neatreceipts.com/guide) Gee paper free and web free.

    Thinking maybe I need to ask Santa if he takes returns!
