Send the Excel file to your accountant
The export is an Excel workbook with five sheets:
Sheet | What It Includes |
Inventory | Your items for the selected year |

Mileage | Your trips and their deductions |
Monthly | Month-by-month figures |
Summary | Totals for the selected year |
Schedule C Category Mapping (US)
Your expense categories are mapped to specific lines on IRS Schedule C (Form 1040), so the Schedule C Summary comes out organized the way your accountant expects -- for example, Platform Fees on line 10 (Commissions and fees) and Inventory Purchases as Cost of goods sold. Built-in categories are pre-mapped, and you can change any mapping from Reports > Tax Reports > Schedule C Summary, then the Schedule C Categories icon. See How do I map my expense categories to IRS Schedule C lines?.
Good to Know
Flippd is not tax software and doesn't file taxes for you -- always consult a tax professional
The more consistently you track expenses, receipts, and mileage throughout the year, the easier tax time is
You can export at any time -- you don't have to wait for year end
Keep your receipt photos attached to expenses for complete records -- they stay in the app and aren't included in the spreadsheet export
