Flag Anomalies Before They Hit Your Books

BlueBean catches issues the moment a charge appears—so finance doesn’t have to hunt them down later.

Auto-detection includes:

  • Missing receipts (based on amount or transaction pattern)

  • Potentially incorrect or mismatched receipts

  • Merchants or categories requiring itemization

  • One-time charges that should match recurring patterns

  • Any transaction needing extra review before approval

Your team reviews fewer transactions—and only the ones that truly need attention.

FAQ

  • BlueBean tracks expenses the moment a transaction happens, automatically applying your accounting rules, cost centers, and categories.
    There is no need for employees to create expense reports — every purchase is logged, enriched, and classified instantly.

  • BlueBean uses your company’s accounting rules to apply the correct:

    • general ledger account

    • cost center

    • object or project

    • tax rules

    • category

    This classification happens in real time and follows the same logic finance would apply manually — but without human effort.

  • Yes.
    BlueBean automatically flags anomalies, including:

    • unexpected merchant behavior

    • out-of-pattern spend

    • incorrect amounts

    • duplicate charges

    • classification mismatches

    These alerts surface issues early, reducing accounting effort and improving compliance.

  • Yes.
    When a purchase needs to be itemized (for example, when part of the spend is billable or must be allocated differently), employees can quickly break it into items.
    BlueBean then applies accounting rules to each item — ensuring precise allocation.

  • Yes.
    Employees and managers can manage expenses in the office or on the go, with full access to transactions and receipts.
    This ensures expenses stay up to date in real time.

  • Yes.
    BlueBean’s philosophy is “expense completed for every transaction” — meaning:

    • the transaction is captured

    • the receipt is attached

    • accounting rules are applied

    • anomalies are flagged

    • the item is ready for ledger posting

    There is no backlog, no month-end scramble, and no dependency on employees submitting manual reports.

  • Because expenses are fully enriched at the moment of purchase, accounting teams no longer need to:

    • recode transactions

    • chase missing receipts

    • investigate misclassified expenses

    • wait for manual submissions

    • correct errors weeks later

    This reduces operational workload and accelerates month-end closing.

  • Yes.
    All enriched transactions appear instantly in the Expense Dashboard, giving finance teams granular visibility into:

    • who is spending

    • what they are spending on

    • the correct accounting classification

    • anomalies that require review

    No delays, no blind spots, no reconciliation surprises.
