Extract receipt data from the files at [file URL 1], [file URL 2], and [file URL 3], then generate an expense report spreadsheet. Use the extract_document tool with these fields:
- receipts (ARRAY): One entry per receipt file, each with:
- merchant (TEXT): Merchant or vendor name
- date (DATE): Transaction date
- amount (CURRENCY_AMOUNT): Total amount paid
- currency (CURRENCY_CODE): Transaction currency
- category (ENUM): Expense category (Meals, Travel, Accommodation, Software, Office Supplies, Other)
Then use the generate_sheet tool to create an XLSX expense report with the extracted rows and a totals row.
