Cancel a bill entered by mistake
Reverse a supplier bill you recorded by mistake, before any payment has been made against it, so it drops back out of what your firm owes.
How to record a bill payment
Record a full or partial payment against an open supplier bill so the money leaves your bank or petty cash and what you owe goes down.
Why you can't cancel a bill
A bill with any payment recorded against it cannot be cancelled, because that would break your books. Here is why, and what to do instead.
Reclaim VAT on a supplier bill
Use the VAT reclaimable switch when you record a supplier bill so the input VAT reduces what your firm owes the FTA, and understand why a supplier TRN matters.
Link a bill or expense to a client
Tag a supplier bill or an expense to a specific company so it counts towards that client's profit, while staying private and never visible to the client.
Read the AP aging report
The AP aging report shows what your firm still owes each supplier, grouped by how overdue each bill is, so you can see who to pay first.
Credit note vs refund: which to use
Use a credit note to cancel an invoice that has not been paid, and a refund to return money on an invoice that has already been paid. This explains how to pick the right one.
Upload a receipt and let it auto-fill
Drag in a photo or PDF of a receipt and IzzyTap reads the supplier, VAT and total for you. You just check the details and confirm, and the expense is recorded.
Record an expense manually
When a cost has no receipt to scan, type it in by hand. Enter the supplier, amount and category and IzzyTap records it to your books.
Review a receipt that needs confirming
When you upload a receipt, IzzyTap reads it and drops it into a Needs review queue. Here is how to check the details and record it so the cost lands in your books.
Edit or delete a recorded expense
Recorded the wrong amount, picked the wrong client, or logged a cost that should never have been there? You can edit a recorded expense (the accounts recompute) or delete it completely.
Reclaim VAT on an expense
The 5% VAT you pay on a business cost can often be claimed back on your VAT return. This explains the VAT treatment options, the reclaimable toggle, and the no-TRN warning.
