Breakdown the receipt into individual items

Is it possible to breakdown the receipt into individual items and make a list of the items with prices so that we can do analysis on the specific items later?

    You can now split receipts into multiple line items and define the subtotals, totals, and taxes separately for each line. We are still building the feature but the basic functionality is live.

    Here’s a quick walkthrough how the feature works right now and where you can find it:

    1. Upload or open an existing document. Click the “Lines” tab. In the line item editor, you can add, remove and edit line items.

    1. If you want to edit values based on totals, click the Total column (if it is not already active). This will update the subtotal based on total and taxes. In this mode, subtotal cannot be edited directly.

    2. If you want to edit values based on subtotals, click the Subtotal column (if it is not already active). This will update the total based on subtotal and taxes. In this mode, total cannot be edited directly.

    3. To add a new line item, click the Insert new line button. Each line item has a category, item type, taxes, subtotal and total. For this example, I added the line items manually.

    4. It’s also possible to define multiple tax rates for each line (e.g. Canada has dual tax). Just click the … button at the end of the row to split the tax line.

    This is becoming quite possible with the recent AI updates. I will merge this post with the other one with the same request.

    Converting the receipt to markdown and automatically entering that into the details section would be truly amazing. See https://github.com/receiptline/receiptline for an example.

    This would allow search, seeing receipt details in the grid view and also searching for an item across receipts and seeing the different prices, dates, shops it was bought at

    This feature has finally been finalized and has now been added to our new SparkReceipt Elite plan. Subscribing to the Elite plan is currently possible in the web app, and mobile apps will follow today or tomorrow, depending on the app store review queues.

    archive any individual item writtten into receipt not just totals.

    I would like to collect more than just receipt totals. I would like to archive the price of each individual item of the article as well as the quantity purchased.
