NEAT Receipts splits receipts into multiple categories, but does not display transaction splits the same way financial software does in the account register. One copy of the transaction shows up for each category. For example, if you bought dog food, ice cream and a roll of tape at one store and split the receipt into categories for pets, groceries and office supplies you would see the receipt listed three times with the same date and vendor, but different categories and dollar amounts.
Split transactions import from NEAT Receipts into financial software with one transaction per category assigned in the split, which will be inconvenient for viewing in the register but will not compromise financial reporting.
If you use Quicken or Microsoft Money and want to have all split transactions share the same appearance in your account registers, use traditional methods of entering transactions, then export receipts from NEAT Receipts to digital image files to be attached to transactions in Quicken (2007 and later) and Microsoft Money Plus(2008 and later).
