How do I save receipts and use them for my costs?

Updated Sep 26, 20261 min read

Receipts are part of My Business, on Pro.

Keep a copy of every receipt

In the mobile app, open the Receipts tab and add a receipt or an invoice.

  • Take photo uses your camera.
  • Upload picks a photo from your library.
  • File picks a PDF or an image from your files.

Plug Seller keeps the original and reads the store, the date, the invoice number, the totals and each line. A photo can be up to 12 MB. A PDF can be up to 20 MB, and its first 5 pages are read.

Your receipts also show on the web in Business > Receipts. There you can search by store, open the image or the PDF, and delete a receipt. Export CSV downloads them all, one row per line.

Use a receipt for your costs

Scan a receipt to fill in what you paid.

  • On the web, go to Business > Receipts, press Scan receipt and upload a clear photo.
  • In the app, go to Business > Stock > Set costs and choose Scan a receipt.

Check the lines you want and correct any cost. A line marked matched was found in your inventory, and new item means it wasn't. Then press one of these.

  • Apply costs sets the buy cost on the matched items in your inventory.
  • Record as purchase records the checked lines as one purchase and adds them to your inventory.

A receipt scanned this way isn't kept with your receipts. To keep a copy, add it in the app's Receipts tab too.

Receipts never become expenses. Add those in Expenses.
