Costs and receipts

Your evidence in the same place as your books

You enter a cost with the supplier, the amount and the VAT, and attach the receipt or purchase invoice right there. That way your evidence is not in a shoebox or somewhere on your phone, but with the entry it belongs to.

What you can do with it

  • Attach a receipt or PDF to every cost entry.
  • VAT on purchases is carried into your VAT overview as input tax automatically.
  • Sort costs into categories, so at the end of the year you know where your money went.

Snap, upload or forward

You photograph a receipt with your phone, drag a PDF in, and forward an invoice you receive by email to your books' own inbox address. Everything comes in at one place, and an email from an unknown sender first waits for your approval, so no nonsense ends up in your books.

Katsjing reads along, you decide

If a supplier sends an e-invoice, Katsjing reads it exactly. For a photo or PDF, Katsjing reads the supplier, the date, the amounts and the VAT with AI and prepares a proposal that you check before it is booked. The number of AI readings per month depends on your plan; entering it by hand is always possible.

Linked to your bank and your VAT

When you import your bank statement, Katsjing looks for the matching cost entry for every debit, and you can turn a debit without a receipt straight into a cost entry. The VAT on your costs counts automatically as input tax in your VAT overview, and the receipt sits with the entry it belongs to, so you have your evidence at hand if the tax authority asks for it.

Frequently asked questions

How long do I have to keep my receipts?
Seven years, and ten years for real estate. In Katsjing the receipt sits with the entry, and with the export or an automatic backup to your own storage you also keep it outside Katsjing.
Does it also work if a supplier doesn't charge VAT?
Yes. You choose the rate per line, including 0% or exempt. Then simply no input tax is counted.
Do I need an automatic bank connection?
No. Katsjing works with a bank file you download from your online banking (CAMT.053 or MT940). After the import, Katsjing links the debits to your costs.

Included in every paid plan

There is no basic version with half a feature list: every feature above is included in both paid plans. What differs is how much of it you use: the number of sales invoices per month, users, trade names and automatically read receipts. ZZP is for sole traders; Onderneming has room everywhere and lets you switch off the Katsjing mention on your invoices. You can also start for free, with a monthly limit on the number of invoices.
