Enable Report Fields

Report fields are only available on the Control plan. You cannot create these report fields directly in Expensify if you are connected to an accounting integration (QuickBooks Online, QuickBooks Desktop, Intacct, Xero, or NetSuite). Please refer to the relevant article for instructions on creating fields within that system.

If you are not connected to an accounting integration, workspace Admins can add additional required report fields that allow you to specify header-level details like specific project names, business trip information, locations, and more.
