# Expanded attachment storage

> Expanded Attachment Storage allows Cardholders and Admins to upload Business Attachments like invoices, purchase orders, and receipts directly to your PEX account for secure, centralized storage.

Expanded Attachment Storage allows Cardholders and Admins to upload Business Attachments like invoices, purchase orders, and receipts directly to your PEX account for secure, centralized storage.

1. **Add an attachment to your PEX account**: Add an invoice, purchase order or receipt to your PEX account.

<Note>
  **Note:**

  You can still attach an attachment to a transaction right away: Go to the **Transactions** menu → locate a transaction → click on it → click **Upload** or drag and drop the receipt file from your computer onto the upload box → click **Save**.
</Note>

The Business Attachments functionality lays the foundation for [automatic receipt matching](/administrator-guide/receipt-matching-admin-guide).
