# Inbox
The Accounts Payable Inbox in CrewCost is where uploaded bills, receipts, and subcontract AIA documents are queued for review before being processed as transactions. This section centralizes incoming payable items so they can be inspected, edited, accepted, or rejected from a single location.
### Access the Inbox and Upload a Document
Navigate to the Accounts Payable Inbox to begin reviewing pending transactions and upload documents.
1. Click **Accounts Payable** in the left navigation menu.
2. Click **Inbox** from the expanded menu options.
3. Click the **Upload** button in the top-right area of the Inbox.
4. Select the file from your device.
5. Wait for CrewCost to process the document and generate a transaction entry.
### Review Inbox Items and Edit a Transaction
The Inbox displays all items currently **Under Review**. Each row shows the **Transaction Date**, **Due Date**, **Payee**, **Category**, **Source**, **Attachment**, and **Amount**. Items flagged as **Needs Attention** require action before they can be processed.
1. Select the **Under Review** tab to see all pending items.
2. Check the **Source** column for any items marked **Needs Attention**.
3. Click the attachment icon in the **Attachment** column to preview the original document.
4. Click the **pencil icon** in the **Actions** column of the item you wish to edit.
5. Review the **Essentials** panel on the right, which includes **Category**, **Vendor**, **Job**, **Amount**, **Transaction Date**, **Due Date**, **Posting Period**, **Status**, and **No.** fields when editing an item.
6. Review the **Items** section, which lists line items with their **Account**, **Description**, **Cost Code**, **Cost Type**, **Amount**, and **Billable** fields.
7. Make any necessary changes to the fields.
8. Click **Save** to apply the changes.
### Accept or Reject a Transaction and View Rejected Items
Once a transaction has been reviewed, use the **More Actions** menu to finalize the decision. Items that have been rejected are moved out of the **Under Review** tab and can be accessed separately.
1. Click the **three-dot icon** in the **Actions** column of the item.
2. Select **Accept** to approve the transaction or **Reject** to dismiss it.
3. Click the **Rejected** tab at the top of the Inbox.
4. Review any items listed there as needed.
The Accounts Payable Inbox provides a structured workflow for processing incoming financial documents in CrewCost. By uploading documents, reviewing generated transactions, and accepting or rejecting items, teams can maintain accurate and up-to-date payable records before any transaction is committed to the system.
