Zoho Expense - add or change merchant after bulk add expenses?
When adding expenses via "bulk add expenses", there is no line item to add the merchant name. After the bulk add, going back to each individual expense, there is nowhere to add the merchant name. It seems the only way to ensure there is a merchant name is by adding expenses one by one. Is my understanding correct?

VAT reports and automatic VAT rates
Hi I'm doing a trial of zoho expense at the moment for my company. We are a UK, VAT registered company. I have 2 questions r.e. VAT: 1. Is it possible to show the VAT and the VAT total in each expense report? 2.

Making an expense billable to a customer
I can create expenses and have them billable to a customer in Zoho Books. But if the expense was incurred by an employee, and they are reimbursed through Zoho Expense & Zoho Books, the expense isn't editable in Zoho Books so I'm unable to attach it to a customer and make it billable. How do I do this, as employees work on client's business and our company needs them reimbursing, and we reimburse our employee?
