Xpenser is bringing mobile expense management to FreshBooks.

FreshBooks is a wonderful solution for managing your clients and invoices online, and they’re known for putting service back in customer service. It turns out a lot of Xpenser users also use FreshBooks, and vice-versa.

Our customers asked us: wouldn’t it be great if Xpenser and FreshBooks integrated so we could capture expenses from any device anywhere and automatically create invoices for them in FreshBooks?

Excellent idea, we thought. Starting today you can do exactly that: capture and manage your expenses with Xpenser, and export them into existing or new invoices in FreshBooks. Everything is available from the Export option in the Expense page, as you can see in this screencast below. Give it a try, and as always let us know what you think.

Jott is magic: you call and say a short message, and in a few minutes your message is transcribed and sent to you as text. It’s really quite fantastic; I highly recommend you open yourself an account (it’s free!).

Jott is also the engine that powers Xpenser’s voice capabilities: you call and say your expense, and in a few minutes it’s recorded in Xpenser.

Starting tonight, we’ve made the integration even better and easier.

To enable voice based expense recording in Xpenser, follow these steps:

1. Open a Jott account. It’s simple and free.
2. Log in to the Jott website and click on the “Jott Links” tab.
3. Find Xpenser in the “Most Popular” links and click add.

That’s it! Now all you have to do to record your expenses is to call the Jott number (1-866-JOTT-123), say “Xpenser”, and then say your expense – for example, “taxi 43 dollars office to airport”. In a few minutes your expense will make its way to Xpenser and be recorded.
