Agent Identity: S2-H06 Assigned to: Receipt/Invoice Upload + Accounting Module Integration Document Status: Complete Specification Session: Cloud Session 2 - Technical Integration Architecture Date: 2025-11-13

---

Executive Summary

This specification defines the architectural integration of receipt/invoice upload and multi-user expense tracking for NaviDocs. The system enables boat owners and captains to capture, process, and manage expenses with OCR-powered automation, reimbursement workflows, and full IF.TTT compliance for audit traceability.

Key Components:

• Multi-user expense tracking (owner, captain, crew)
• Receipt/invoice OCR workflow (photo → extraction → review → save)
• Accounting module integration (Spliit fork for MIT-licensed flexibility)
• Reimbursement workflow with owner approval
• WhatsApp AI integration for expense logging
• Multi-currency support (€, $, £)
• Export to Excel/CSV for accountants
• Full IF.TTT audit trail compliance

1. Multi-User Expense Tracking Design

1.1 User Roles & Expense Categories

Owner Expenditure

• Payment Methods: Cash, card, bank transfers
• Typical Expenses: Marina fees, insurance, major upgrades, professional services, fuel, haul-outs
• Approval Flow: Direct entry (owner logs own expenses) + approval of captain reimbursements
• Budget Authority: Can set monthly/annual budgets and approve work roadmap expenses
• Tax Implications: Tracks VAT status, business vs. personal expenses (for charter/rental boats)

Captain/Crew Expenditure

• Payment Methods: Boat card (pre-approved limit), boat cash, personal funds (for reimbursement)
• Typical Expenses: Provisions, fuel, minor repairs, supplies, crew meals, dockage during captain-only periods
• Approval Flow: Submit receipt → OCR extraction → owner approves/rejects → mark paid
• Documentation: Must provide receipt photo for all expenses
• Reimbursement Tracking: Separate accounting for personal cash advances vs. company card charges

3. Accounting Module Architecture

3.1 Integration Strategy: Fork vs. Library

Recommended Approach: Spliit Fork (MIT License)

Rationale:

• ✅ Boat-specific features (owner/captain/crew roles not in original Spliit)
• ✅ Full control over expense data model
• ✅ Direct integration with IF.TTT compliance (signatures, hashes)
• ✅ Customizable workflows (reimbursement approval chains)
• ✅ Multi-currency support (Spliit has this; we enhance)
• ✅ Receipt scanning core feature (matches our OCR pipeline)
• ✅ PWA mobile support (critical for boat operations)
• ✅ MIT license allows commercial use, modifications

Spliit Source: https://github.com/pmihaylov/spliit (2.3K stars, active)

Fork & Customize Process:

# 1. Fork Spliit repository
git clone https://github.com/[navidocs-org]/spliit-navidocs.git
cd spliit-navidocs

# 2. Merge NaviDocs-specific branches
git remote add upstream https://github.com/pmihaylov/spliit.git
git fetch upstream
git merge upstream/main  # Get latest Spliit features

# 3. Create navidocs-specific branch
git checkout -b feature/navidocs-yacht-integration

# 4. Customize for boat workflows
- Modify user roles (owner, captain, crew vs. Spliit's split member)
- Enhance expense model with boat_id, maintenance_log_id, etc.
- Add IF.TTT compliance layer (signatures, hashes, citations)
- Implement reimbursement approval workflow
- Add multi-currency with exchange rate tracking
- Integrate receipt OCR (use our Google Vision pipeline)
- Add export to Excel/CSV for accountants
- Implement access controls (captain sees own expenses, owner sees all)

4.2 Captain Expense Reimbursement Flow

Captain purchases provisions for €52.30 with personal cash

Step 1: Captain logs expense
├─ Opens mobile app (any time, any place)
├─ Clicks "Add Expense"
├─ Takes photo of receipt
├─ System extracts: Vendor: "Supermarket", Amount: €52.30, Date: today
├─ Selects category: "Provisions"
├─ Notes: "Weekly supplies"
└─ Clicks "Submit for Approval"
   └─ Expense status: "pending" (awaits owner approval)
   └─ Notification sent to owner: "Captain requested reimbursement: €52.30"

Step 2: Expense aggregation (optional)
├─ Captain can submit multiple expenses together
├─ Clicks "Create Reimbursement Request"
├─ Selects expenses: [52.30 + 35.00 + 18.50] = €105.80
├─ Adds note: "Personal cash advances from Oct 20-Nov 13"
├─ Clicks "Submit Request"
└─ Reimbursement request created
   └─ Status: "submitted"
   └─ Notification: Owner sees request in dashboard

Step 3: Owner reviews & approves
├─ Owner logs into app
├─ Sees reimbursement request notification
├─ Clicks to expand request details:
│  ├─ Captain: "Marco (Captain)"
│  ├─ Total: €105.80
│  ├─ Expenses:
│  │  ├─ Supermarket (Provisions): €52.30 ← owner can expand receipt image
│  │  ├─ Bakery (Provisions): €35.00 ← approve/reject individual items
│  │  └─ Marine Supply (Supplies): €18.50
│  └─ Notes: "Personal cash advances from Oct 20-Nov 13"
├─ Owner has options:
│  ├─ [Approve All] → All expenses marked "approved"
│  ├─ [Approve Partial] → Select which to approve
│  ├─ [Reject] → All returned to captain (stays pending)
│  ├─ [Message Captain] → Ask for clarification (via WhatsApp)
│  └─ [Reject Item] → Specific items rejected, others approved
├─ Owner clicks "Approve All"
└─ Expenses status updated to "approved"
   └─ Notification: Captain sees "Your reimbursement of €105.80 approved!"

Step 4: Payment processing
├─ Owner marks reimbursement as "paid"
├─ Owner selects payment method:
│  ├─ Bank transfer (account details pre-filled from captain profile)
│  ├─ Cash (mark as paid after handing over cash)
│  ├─ Card (transfer via app if available)
│  └─ Other
├─ Enters payment date & reference (bank transaction ID)
├─ Clicks "Mark Paid"
└─ Reimbursement status: "paid"

│  ├─ who: Captain (Ed25519 signature)
│  ├─ when: 2025-10-20 10:15 AM
│  ├─ what: Original receipt photo + extracted data
│  ├─ owner_approval: Owner name, timestamp
│  ├─ payment: Bank transfer ref 12345678
│  └─ citation_id: if://receipt/navidocs/boat-123/expense-4567
└─ Accountant can verify chain of custody

4.3 Crew Expense Flow

Similar to captain, but:

• Captain must pre-approve before owner sees it
• Workflow: Crew logs → Captain approves → Owner approves → Marked paid
• Prevents owner seeing every crew purchase individually

Crew buys ice for €8.50 with boat cash

Step 1: Crew logs expense
├─ App logs: "Crew purchased ice for €8.50"
├─ Takes receipt photo (if available)
└─ Status: "pending_captain_approval"
   └─ Captain notification: "Crew expense pending: €8.50"

Step 2: Captain reviews (filters out small/pre-approved items)
├─ Captain sees list of crew expenses pending approval
├─ Captain can:
│  ├─ [Approve] → Status becomes "pending" (awaits owner approval)
│  ├─ [Reject] → Status "rejected" (expense removed from boat cash log)
│  ├─ [Auto-Approve] → Set rules:
│  │  ├─ Items under €20: auto-approve
│  │  ├─ Specific categories: auto-approve (ice, provisions)
│  └─ [View] → See expense details + receipt image
└─ Captain approves (or auto-approved by rule)
   └─ Status: "pending" (awaits owner approval)
   └─ Owner sees in daily summary: "5 crew expenses, €47.30 total"

Step 3: Owner bulk-approves crew expenses
├─ Owner opens dashboard
├─ Sees: "5 pending crew expenses (€47.30)"
├─ Owner options:
│  ├─ [Approve All] → All marked "approved"
│  ├─ [View Details] → Expand to see each item
│  └─ [Reject Items] → Sends back to captain with questions
├─ Owner clicks "Approve All"
└─ All crew expenses: "approved"
   └─ Captain notified: "5 crew expenses approved (€47.30)"
   └─ Owner knows they owe captain €47.30 in boat cash reimbursement

Alternative: Boat Cash Account
├─ If boat maintains cash drawer (e.g., €500)
├─ Transactions: [+€500 starting balance] → [-€8.50 ice] → [-€23.00 fuel] → etc.
├─ Owner periodically reimburses boat cash drawer
├─ Captain tracks: "Boat cash remaining: €250.30"
└─ Reconciliation: Physical count vs. app records

6. WhatsApp AI Integration (S2-H08 Dependency)

6.1 Expense Logging via WhatsApp

Integration Point: S2-H08 (WhatsApp Group Integration) handles chat webhook; S2-H06 (Accounting) handles expense processing

Example: Captain in WhatsApp group chat

Captain: "@NaviDocs log expense €45 diesel"
│
▼ (IF.bus to S2-H08)

S2-H08 WhatsApp Agent:
├─ Receives message via WhatsApp Business API webhook
├─ Parses: amount=€45, category=fuel, description="diesel"
├─ Checks if creator has authorization (captain role for this boat)
├─ Calls: POST /api/expenses with parsed data
│
▼ (IF.bus to S2-H06)

S2-H06 Accounting Service:
├─ Creates expense record:
│  ├─ amount: 45.00
│  ├─ currency: EUR
│  ├─ category: Fuel
│  ├─ description: (from chat context)
│  ├─ created_by: captain
│  └─ status: pending_captain_approval (if crew) or pending (if captain)
├─ Generates IF.TTT signature + citation
└─ Returns expense_id

S2-H08 WhatsApp Agent:
├─ Posts confirmation: "@Marco ✓ Logged: €45 diesel on 2025-11-13"
├─ Optional: Adds quick buttons:
│  ├─ [View Receipt] → Link to expense detail
│  ├─ [Edit] → Links to app to upload receipt photo
│  └─ [More] → Shows recent 5 expenses
└─ Stores in IF.TTT audit log: message hash + citation

Command Syntax:

@NaviDocs log expense [amount] [currency] [category] [description]
@NaviDocs log [amount] [currency] [description]  # auto-category

Examples:
@NaviDocs log expense €45 fuel             → €45.00, Fuel, auto-date
@NaviDocs log €35 EUR provisions           → €35.00, Provisions
@NaviDocs log $80 marina fees Antibes      → $80 USD, Marina, Antibes
@NaviDocs log 45 GBP diesel fuel Kingston  → £45.00, Fuel, Kingston

Advanced:
@NaviDocs log expense €150 maintenance Hull repair invoice #12345
→ Links to maintenance log if ID provided
@NaviDocs reimbursement request [list of recent expense IDs]
→ Creates reimbursement request from last N expenses

10.2 S2-H03 (Maintenance) Integration

Maintenance log provides:

• maintenance_log_id: UUID to link expenses
• service_type: "engine", "electronics", "hull", etc. → helps categorize expenses
• date: Service date → can auto-fill expense date
• cost_estimate: Maintenance module tracks estimated vs. actual

Expense module queries maintenance:

// When captain logs expense for engine service
POST /api/expenses {
  amount: 450.00,
  currency: "EUR",
  category: "Maintenance",
  description: "Engine oil change",
  maintenance_log_id: "maint-789"  // Links back to maintenance record
}

// Maintenance module can then query:
GET /api/expenses?maintenance_log_id=maint-789
// Response: All expenses associated with that maintenance work
// Allows: Track estimate vs actual spending

// Dashboard shows:
// "Engine Service (Nov 13)"
// └─ Estimated Cost: €400
// └─ Actual Expenses: €450 (oil change) + €85 (labor) = €535
// └─ Variance: +€135 (33% over estimate)
