Bill and receipt uploads

Snap it, upload it or e-mail it in. fiscal50 files it.

Every bill and receipt lands on Expenses › Bill & Receipt Uploads. Upload PDF, JPG, JPEG, PNG, HEIC or HEIF files up to 5 MB each from a computer or a phone, or e-mail them in from your registered fiscal50 address. fiscal50 reads the vendor, date, amount and document number and attaches each document to the matching record: receipts to payments or bank feed transactions, bills to bill records. A document that didn’t match waits in the list with nothing under Attached To. Choose what to do with it in the Action column, pick the record under Link to Record and click Record Transaction.

E-mail it in

Forward it, and it’s filed

  • The envelope button on Bill & Receipt Uploads shows the addresses to use
  • One address is for receipts and one is for bills, so the address sets the file type
  • Send from your registered fiscal50 e-mail address, the one you sign in with
  • Up to 5 MB per e-mail, in the same file formats as uploads

Bill and receipt uploads

More you can do with uploads

Read for you

The vendor, date, amount and document number are read from the document, so you don’t type them.

One click to the transaction

The eye icon under View Transaction opens the payment or bill the document is attached to.

Find any document

Search by file name, filter with Status & Type and switch the year. The download icon next to each file name gives you the original.

Bills and receipts, both

File Type shows Bill or Receipt for every document, whether it was uploaded or e-mailed in.

What it posts

The document posts nothing by itself

Uploading a bill or receipt posts nothing by itself; the bill or payment it is attached to carries the entry. When you record a payment from an unmatched receipt, that payment posts like any other.

FAQ

Bill and receipt uploads: common questions

Which files can I upload, and how large?

PDF, JPG, JPEG, PNG, HEIC and HEIF. The limit is 5 MB per file when uploading and 5 MB per e-mail when e-mailing.

How do I e-mail documents in?

Click the envelope button on Bill & Receipt Uploads to see the addresses, then send the document from your registered fiscal50 e-mail address. The address you send it to tells fiscal50 whether it is a bill or a receipt. E-mails from other addresses can’t be linked to your account.

Does uploading a bill create the bill?

No. Uploading a bill attaches it to an existing bill record, and uploading a receipt attaches it to an existing payment or bank transaction. For a receipt with no payment yet, record the payment from the Action column.

Why wasn’t my document matched?

The payment or bill may not be recorded yet, the details may be hard to read, or the type may be wrong. It waits in the list; match it yourself from the Action and Link to Record columns.

Can I upload from my phone?

Yes. Open fiscal50 in your phone’s browser and upload the photo as it is; HEIC, JPG and PNG are supported.

Where can I see the document later?

On Bill & Receipt Uploads, where the download icon gives you the original, and on the transaction it is attached to.
