Expenses
The Expenses page tracks money your business spends — software, travel, rent, and more. Recording expenses feeds your profit picture and, where eligible, your GST input tax credit.
What an expense captures
- Date, merchant, category, and amount
- Optional GST paid and whether to claim it as Input Tax Credit (ITC)
- A receipt file you can upload as proof
- Whether the cost is billable to a client
Log an expense
Enter the date, merchant, category, and amount. Attach the receipt image or PDF if you have one.Record GST and ITC
If GST was charged, enter it and tick claim ITC to count it as input tax credit.Mark billable (optional)
If you'll pass the cost to a client, mark it billable and pick the client. It can then be pulled into an invoice.
Impact on GST and reports
Expenses reduce your net profit in Reports. Expenses with claim ITC ticked offset the GST you owe on sales. Billable expenses can be recovered by adding them to an invoice.
