How it works

From first purchase to final reimbursement—every step in one workflow.

Wrap Report holds the whole job: projects, expenses, receipts, returns, refunds, financial tracking, approvals and the wrap report itself. No camera roll, no spreadsheet, no chasing paper the week after wrap.

  2. Capture Expenses
  3. Track Returns

The lifecycle

Every project follows the same path.

Thirteen steps, always in the same order — so the work is predictable whether it is a one-day editorial or a full season of television.

  1. Step 1

    Create your project

    Every job starts as a project. It becomes the home for each receipt, return, refund and report that follows, so nothing lives in a camera roll or a spreadsheet again.

    Tip — Give every project a clear client name and date range for easier organization.

  2. Step 2

    Configure project details

    Add the client, production, budget, advance received, team members, notes and project dates. This information carries through every screen and lands in the final wrap report automatically.

    What happens automatically — Budget and advance figures feed the financial dashboard and reimbursement math without a second entry.

    Tip — Record the advance up front so out-of-pocket totals stay accurate from day one.

  3. Step 3

    Upload receipts

    Capture purchases the way the day allows — drag and drop from a laptop, photograph a paper receipt on set, attach several receipts to one expense, or bulk upload a full shopping run on Pro.

    Tip — Upload receipts immediately after each purchase to avoid missing documentation.

  4. Step 4

    OCR extracts the details

    Wrap Report reads each receipt and pulls the merchant, date, totals and line items into a review screen, so you are confirming information instead of typing it.

    What happens automatically — Extraction runs in the background the moment a file finishes uploading — merchant, date, amount and line items arrive pre-filled.

    Tip — Photograph the whole receipt, flat and in good light, for the cleanest extraction.

    Review and confirm expenses

    Check the extracted values, attach the vendor, correct anything that needs it and save. Missing receipts and incomplete details are surfaced immediately rather than at wrap.

    Tip — Clear flagged expenses weekly — it keeps the final report a five-minute job.

  6. Step 6

    Categorize expenses

    Organize purchases into categories and expense types that match how you actually report. Categories and vendors are shared across the workspace, so the next project starts pre-configured.

    Tip — Create categories inline while reviewing — they are saved for every future project.

  7. Step 7

    Track returns

    Every purchased item moves through its own return lifecycle — kept, return pending, in transit or returned — with deadlines in one queue so nothing slips past a window.

    Tip — Set the return status at purchase time; the queue then tells you what is due.

    Record refunds

    Log full or partial refunds against the item that was returned. Outstanding refunds stay visible until the money lands, and project financials update the moment one is recorded.

    What happens automatically — Each refund is reconciled against its expense and deducted from total spend across the dashboard and the wrap report.

    Tip — Record partial refunds exactly as the vendor issued them — restocking fees included.

  9. Step 9

    Monitor financial progress

    The project dashboard shows budget, advances, purchases, refunds, remaining balance, out-of-pocket spend and the total the production owes you — all in one view.

    What happens automatically — Every new expense, return or refund recalculates the dashboard instantly — there is no month-end spreadsheet to rebuild.

    Tip — Check the remaining balance before large purchases to avoid budget surprises.

    Collaborate with your team

    Assistants, accountants and administrators work in the same workspace with role-based permissions, notifications and a full activity history of who changed what.

    Tip — Give assistants receipt access and keep financial approval with the lead stylist.

    Generate the wrap report

    Wrap Report assembles project details, expenses, returns, refunds and financial summaries into a professional report — with an approval workflow and version history behind it.

    What happens automatically — The report is built from live project data, so it is complete the first time you open it.

    Tip — Move the report to Approved once finance signs off; the version is preserved.

    Complete reimbursement and archive

    Confirm the reimbursement, close the lifecycle and archive the project. Every document, receipt and financial record stays securely stored and searchable for future reference.

    What happens automatically — Archiving locks the project against edits while preserving a complete, searchable audit history.

    Tip — Archive only after reimbursement is confirmed — the lifecycle checks this for you.
