TIME-SAVER: Another method for processing receipts is to drag and drop receipts from emails to your desktop, then to your open seaLandings window. With your email open, drag your receipt from your email to your desktop.
Then drag your receipt from your desktop to your open seaLandings window. Make sure all dialog boxes in seaLandings are closed first.
Then click on the Process File button and your receipt will be processed. Click OK. Your receipt will disappear from your desktop after it is dragged to and processed by your seaLandings program.
You will receive an error message if you attempt to drag your receipt from your email to seaLandings directly. The receipt must be dragged first to your desktop, and then to your seaLandings program.
