** Why: provide a one sentence reason for the expense, unless it is blatantly obvious.  Also, categorize the items, unless readily apparent, as follows:

*** Supplies: consumables and hand tools

*** Supplies: consumables, hand tools, and small replacement parts

*** Tools: portable equipment, non-consumables, and equipment, all under $1,000

*** Tools: portable equipment, non-consumables larger than hand tools, and non-portable equipment, all under $1,000

*** Equipment: anything over $1,000 is probably equipment.  Note that area host spending is limited to purchases under $500 without board approval for each large purchase.  If the item(s) is over $1,000 and is not equipment, the categorization will be inferred from the description.
