Upload selected photos/receipts; draft item/photo/receipt table with uncertain matches, apply your corrections, then sort room/category register with factual purchase fields copied from receipts.
What to paste into the tool
For this room, list each item you can see in the photos, with a photo number and any receipt that might match it. Mark every match as certain or uncertain. Keep the receipt codes unchanged. Do not estimate values. Using my corrected rows, make a register by room and category with columns: item, photo file, receipt file, purchase date and price only if printed on the receipt, else blank.
