The Expense Organization Tool

Tracking and categorizing expenses can be one of the most tedious parts of bookkeeping. The either/or dilemma is often between using a complex software or manually compiling messy receipts. The single-entry system provides a clear, organized solution.

This is where you record all the money you spend from your business checking account. You set it up with columns for the key details of each check: date, paid to, check number, and amount. Then, create separate columns for your most frequent expense categories, like 'Materials,' 'Rent,' or 'Utilities'. You then carry these monthly expense totals over to your Annual Summary to prepare your tax return.
