Tracking receipts and financial documents is a great way to keep track of your finances but can be cumbersome and difficult to store.

To solve this common problem, Quicken offers a variety of ways to attach documents and images to your transactions.    

The Quicken for Windows and Mac desktop products and the all-new Quicken on the Web companion App offer the ability to add or upload attachments directly from your PC or a cloud-based storage solution such as iCloud, DropBox, One Drive, etc.

With the Quicken Companion Mobile App, we’ve made it easier than ever to “Snap and Store” attachments to already existing transactions or newly entered transactions, using the camera on your mobile device.

Once added, the attachments automatically sync to your Quicken desktop file, so you’ll always have access, whether at home or on-the-go.
