What this solves
Lynx OCR - Expenses Bridge
Drop a receipt on the Expenses list and Lynx OCRs it, pre-fills the expense, and detects self-invoiced cases - so employees stop typing fields the receipt already shows.
Expense reports are the universal employee complaint: receipts piled up, fields entered manually, currency mistakes. This bridge plugs the generic Lynx OCR engine into the Expenses module so a dropped receipt auto-fills date, total, vendor description, currency, and product. It also handles the awkward case where an invoice from the user's own company should become an expense, with a "Send to Expenses" button on the PO chatter.
Key Features
Drag-drop on the Expenses list - dropping a receipt runs OCR and pre-fills date, total, vendor, currency, and product.
Self-invoice routing - if OCR detects the issuer is the user's own company, a "Send to Expenses" button on the bill chatter converts it into an hr.expense.
Document linkage - purchase.ocr.document.expense_id connects every OCR document to its resulting expense for audit.
Currency-aware - extracted currency drives expense currency without manual selection.
Mobile-friendly - works through any client that uploads to the Expenses list.
Auto-Installation
Installs automatically when both lynx_ocr and hr_expense are present. Bridges the OCR engine to expense reporting so submission takes seconds, not minutes.
