Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. 1Open Expenses and tap 'Add Expense'.
  2. 2Enter the amount, category (e.g. Generator Fuel, Cleaning, Packaging, Rent), and payment method.
  3. 3If the expense covers multiple months (such as quarterly or annual rent), enter the number of months in 'Spread over how many months?'.
  4. 4Save the expense. Full cash is deducted immediately from the drawer on payment day, while P&L reports amortize the cost evenly across months.

Pro-Tip & Business Impact

Amortization ensures a single annual rent payment in January doesn't distort your monthly profitability throughout the rest of the year.
