Expense and sales tax evidence

Extract Expense and Sales Tax Evidence from Receipts

For accountants and bookkeepers who need receipt-level tax detail. Upload receipts with card transactions, extract GST, HST, PST, or sales tax, review uncertain items, and export structured evidence.

Upload receipts

Current workflow

Statements do not contain the tax evidence.

The source detail is usually on the receipt, but it is not ready to use.

  • Card statements show totals but not tax detail.
  • Receipts are stored in inboxes, folders, and cardholder uploads.
  • Tax, tip, vendor, and category evidence is copied manually.
  • Coding decisions are hard to explain when source detail is missing.

The extracted evidence supports corporate card reconciliation and gives month-end review cleaner data.

Example scenario

A concrete review outcome

When complete, your team has a final record of items and supporting backup, ready for upload to your system and for future audit backup.

$34,000 across 48 transactions. 37 receipts with claimable GST, 5 with foreign tax, 6 with no GST.

The team itemizes the receipt-level tax evidence, separates non-claimable amounts, and prepares support for a $1,300 GST refund claim.

Next step

Upload receipts for tax evidence

Use the receipt as the source of truth for recovery, coding, and review.
