Adding receipts in Accountable takes seconds: snap, upload, or email your documents and Accountable handles the categorisation for you. This article covers the different ways to import receipts, what data Accountable extracts, where your files are stored, and how batch uploads work.
Where can I import receipts from?
You can import receipts from multiple sources:
📸 Your phone camera: snap a picture and you're done
🖼 Your gallery: perfect for receipts you've already saved
📄 Connected services: upload PDFs from Dropbox, Google Drive, and more
✉️ Email: send documents to expenses@accountable.eu (from your login email) and they are added automatically, with no limit per email
💻 Web app: go to the Expenses tab, click "Add Expense," and drag and drop your files (PDF or images)
What data does Accountable extract from my receipt?
Accountable automatically captures key details such as the merchant, date, and amounts. Based on this, it assigns the right accounting category, saving you time and effort.
Accountable continuously improves its recognition system, so your feedback is always welcome.
Are my documents safe and accessible?
Yes. Your files are securely stored on Accountable's servers in France and backed up daily.
You can access your documents at any time by exporting them via the Settings section.
Can I upload multiple receipts at once?
Not yet, but you can send multiple documents in a single email as a workaround.
Batch uploads are on the roadmap, especially to help you catch up quickly on admin tasks.
