Manual expense work is time-consuming. Uploading receipts, assigning categories, matching transactions, exporting data to your ERP. For most finance teams, that can easily add up to more than ten hours each month spent on maintenance rather than analysis.

With Slash’s accounting automation update, transactions can now be automatically categorized, tagged, and approved in your dashboard, then synced to your accounting software. Set the rules once and let Slash handle the rest.

What’s new

Accounting Auto-Categorization

Every transaction is categorized automatically as it hits your accounting dashboard. Slash reads merchant data and maps each charge to the appropriate expense category in real-time, with no manual review required for recognized vendors.

  • Categories are assigned based on merchant data and your team's transaction history
  • Accuracy improves over time as the system learns your patterns
  • Unrecognized transactions are flagged for review rather than left miscategorized

ERP Property Tagging

Getting the category right is only one part of maintaining clean books. Each transaction also needs to carry the right properties for your ERP: department, cost center, class, project. With Slash, you can now define your ERP tagging rules once, so entries arrive in your ERP fully enriched, every time.

  • Define your tagging rules once; Slash applies them to every transaction going forward
  • Consistent coding across your entire team, every time
  • No more chasing down context on individual charges

Batch Approvals

Reviewing transactions one at a time isn’t scalable. Slash now lets you filter transactions by category, date range, team, or amount in your accounting panel and approve them in bulk, so a month's worth of expenses doesn't require a month's worth of clicks.

  • Review and process large volumes of expense entries in a single pass based on configurable parameters
  • Spot anomalies quickly with a filterable view of pending items
  • Keep approvals moving without creating a bottleneck at the end of each period
