Reviewing & Editing Bills

Learn how to review, edit, split, and annotate bills in Adaptive before sending them for approval.

Updated over a week ago

Once bills are uploaded into Adaptive, review and edit them before sending for approval or payment. This ensures all billing details are accurate and properly categorized.

1. Access Bills

To view uploaded bills:

  • Navigate to the Bills page

  • Review all bills in the table view

From this view, Adaptive displays the billing information extracted from each document.

Note:
Adaptive uses OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to extract billing details from uploaded documents. Cost Codes are not extracted and must be assigned separately.

2. Review Bills in Table View

Use the table view to quickly review and take action on multiple bills.

  • View extracted billing details for each bill

  • Select multiple bills using the checkboxes

  • Click Actions to:

    • Edit bills in bulk

    • Approve multiple bills simultaneously

3. Review & Edit Bill Details

To view and edit a specific bill:

  • Click on a bill to open the Bill Details page

From here, you can:

  • Review all extracted bill information

  • Add or update Line Items to allocate costs across Jobs and Cost Codes

  • Bulk update multiple line items

Note:
If a bill does not include a Due Date, it defaults to the Upload Date.

4. Split Multi-Page Bills

To split a multi-page document into separate bills:

  • Open the bill in the Bill Details page

  • Click Auto Split Document

This will:

  • Split each page into an individual bill

    • Example: A 3-page document becomes 3 separate bills

5. View Activity Log

At the bottom of the Bill Details page, access the Activity Log to:

  • View a timeline of all edits

  • See which user made each change

6. Send Bills for Approval

After reviewing and editing:

  • Click Send for Approval at the bottom of the bill

This moves the bill to the approval workflow.

7. Annotate Documents

To annotate a bill or document:

  • Open a bill from the Bills page

  • Use the annotation tools to:

    • Highlight content

    • Add text boxes

    • Adjust text box size

    • Edit or delete annotations

    • Erase annotations as needed

  • Click Save Edited File to apply changes

Important:
Saving the edited file replaces the original document and the edited document is retained when syncing to QuickBooks Online (QBO).
