What it does

  • Income: date, client or source, description, income category, payment method, amount received, the sales tax you charged and the invoice number
  • Expenses: date, vendor, description, category, payment method, total paid and the sales tax on the receipt, plus a receipt column
  • Before-tax amounts calculate for every row; each expense category has its own deductible share (for example 50% for meals)
  • Mileage log: date, from, to, purpose and distance, valued at your rate per km or mile
  • Monthly summary: expenses by category and income by category for every month of the year, total income, profit (income minus expenses) and net sales tax (collected minus paid)
  • Dashboard: income, expenses and profit for the year, sales tax collected and paid, net sales tax owing, deductible expenses, biggest expense category, a month-by-month table and two charts
  • No monthly copying: one list for income and one for expenses. Change the year on the Settings tab to see another year
  • Room for 1,000 income rows, 2,000 expenses and 500 trips. Works in any currency and with any sales tax name (GST, HST, VAT, sales tax)
