Split an expense in the mobile app

Splitting an expense lets you break one card expense or reimbursement into multiple parts so each part can have its own amount and tags. This helps when one receipt includes different costs (for example, accommodation and meals on the same hotel bill).

Split a card expense or reimbursement

1. Open the Pleo mobile app and tap Expenses
2. Select the expense you want to split
3. Tap Split
4. Add split parts (lines)
5. For each part, set:
   • The amount
   • The relevant tag(s) (including multiple tag dimensions if your company uses them)
6. Check that the total of all parts matches the expense total
7. Tap Done to save

Good to know: If your finance team has already split the expense in the web app, you can still open the expense in the mobile app to view the full breakdown.

What you can (and can’t) split on mobile

You can split:

• Amount
• Tags (including multiple tag dimensions, if configured)

You can’t split:

• VAT/tax codes (this is handled by admins in the web app)
• Category (this is handled by admins in the web app)

Troubleshooting

I can’t see the option to split by tags/amount

• Update your Pleo mobile app to version 26.28.0 (or later)
• If it still doesn’t appear, your company settings may not allow splitting

I can’t see tags (or some tag groups)

• Tags may not show if they haven’t been configured for your company, or if the tag group isn’t available to employees
• Ask your admin to review your company’s tag configuration

I can’t edit a split expense

• You can edit the split as long as the expense hasn’t been exported yet
• After export, the split is locked and can’t be changed
• If you think it was exported by mistake, check with your finance team on the next best step
