Accountable supports mixed costs ✅
If an expense covers both professional and private use, you can record it as a mixed cost in Accountable. The process is straightforward: you create the expense, attach the proof, and then set the professional percentage. Accountable handles the deductibility calculations automatically.
1/ Create the expense and attach the proof
Add the expense the same way you would any other expense in Accountable.
2/ Open the 'Professional part' in the lower menu
Enter the percentage of the amount that relates to your professional activity.
You do not need to calculate deductibility rates for VAT or income taxes yourself. Accountable computes everything in the background based on the expense category.
The same logic applies to complementary self-employed workers: Accountable applies the activity rate (for example, the number of days you work per week as self-employed) after you set the professional percentage for the individual expense.
