Is it easier to enter purchases on a computer or a smartphone/tablet?

This comes down to personal preference and depends on what type of expense you are submitting. 

If it is a relatively simple expense (one or two category lines), where you have a physical receipt to photograph, you may prefer using your smartphone or tablet. For example, it is quick and easy to claim reimbursement for a train ticket at the station immediately after purchase.

If you are submitting an expense that needs a more complex breakdown or description, or where the receipt is a PDF on your computer, an email, or a screenshot, you may wish to use a computer.

The process is the same on both types of devices, so the main factors to consider are:

• text entry (keyboard or smartphone screen);
• attaching the receipt (photograph or computer file).
