To split an expense into two separate expenses, the **“Cost Splitting”** feature must first be activated by an admin in the Marketplace under the **“Organization”** tab. Once activated, the corresponding option will appear during the process. Once the feature has been activated and is ready to use, you can split an expense either as a user or later as an admin. An expense can be split as many times as needed. To split an expense, a receipt image must first be added to the respective expense. #### **As a User:** Once you have finished entering the expense and want to split it, click **“expense split”**. A new window will open where you can fill in the required fields\*. Once you are finished, click **“save”**. After splitting, the individual amounts will appear in the expense. If you want to split one of them again, click **“Close”** and reopen the expense. You can then click **“save”** again. #### **As an Admin:** If you notice after approval that an expense should have been split, you can still do this afterwards during the **“Review”** or **“Ready to Send”** steps. To do so, click the three dots in the corresponding row and then select **“Edit report”**. The report will then open. Select the relevant expense and click the **pencil icon**. As a final step, click **“+ Split expense”** to split the expense accordingly. Don’t forget to **save** your changes.   Have fun using our solution!
