Product Description:

ReceiptWallet leverages the power of the Macintosh to organize receipts. By scanning in paper receipts from any TWAIN compliant scanner, users can have a complete electronic history of all receipts. ReceiptWallet takes advantage of many Apple technologies including Spotlight, AppleScript, and Disc Burning to create an easy to use application. In addition, it provides the ability to export to Quicken (QIF).

What's new in this version:

  • Added alert when an exception is thrown to catch errors
  • Preferences file is now copied into data folder prior to backup so it gets backed up
  • Added auto fill for category and payment method if the merchant matches a previous entry; it picks up the last entry by date
  • Search now shows number found right below it (this is in addition to in the lower left corner)
  • Columns now resize when window is resized or columns are added/removed
  • Added ability to inidivudally rotate pages when viewing a receipt via contextual menu
  • Added ability to remove a single page when viewing a receipt via contextual menu
  • Register and purchase menu items are no longer available if the app is already registered
  • Command = now zooms in for preview views (in addition to command-shift-= which is command-+)
  • Fixed updating of receipt when adding pages
  • Addressed issues switching libraries
  • Re-worked how items are deleted to hopefully fix some issues

ReceiptWallet ReviewTerrible OCR which makes it almost useless - Version: 2.0.9, 3/26/2009 01:54PM PST

The OCR in the app is terrible. It rarely picks up the amounts from the receipts (and even more rarely does it pick up the dates) and on the odd occasion it finds an amount it's WRONG!

Not only do you have to manually correct / populate the info for almost every receipt but if you were to miss an incorrect amount it would be stored like that making it useless. This could even screw you up at tax time if you went with the wrong number. We’re not talking a matter of cents here either. Many receipts I scanned were OCR at $1 when the amount was something like $84.97. In other cases it was picking up numbers that were not even on the receipt. It picked up an amount of $77.77... I don’t even think there were any 7’s on the receipt anywhere!!!

If you want to use this for OCR stay far far away. Otherwise it might be ok, but if I have to enter all the info manually I will just do it once in my Billings3 software (to track expenses) and be done with it. No sense in trying to use this to automatically input receipts if you have to type them all in anyways. Might as well just scan them into a folder for a backup copy and use any other piece of software to manually enter the amounts. Sure you would have the searchable info (amounts, merchant, dates, etc) attached to the images of the receipts, but is it really worth doubling up on your efforts and having that stuff spread across two pieces of software just to try and save some time with OCR that doesn’t work? I don’t think so. Billings3 and other programs can link up to external files (aka the receipt you scanned) so why add another app just to do the same thing and double your work load?

ReceiptWallet CommentaryIn general, I love it - Version: 2.0.8, 1/13/2009 04:29PM PST

I have been using this program for a good while and aside from the fact that I can't use it directly with my ScanSnap or Epson V700 scanners, I can use it quite effectively with the help of ScanHelper and ScanSnap Manager. With ScabHelper.app I can send the ScanSnap file to anyone of a number of programs for modification. In my case, I send the scans to ReceiptWallet 2.0.8, whose documents have been encrypted with Knox 1.6.2, and after entering the Knox Vault password, it is off to the races.

I've used the application for some time now and I have used a TWAIN scanner with no problems with the exception of the scanning was a little slow. I now have ScanSnap and it's just great. The only problem that I'm having with ReceiptWallet is when I do a Report and include the Tax information, the sum total is way off the mark. It does not give me a true total.
