Why You Need a Better Way to Track Employee Receipts

Keeping up with your corporate expenses can be a total nightmare but it doesn’t have to be. In fact, 15% of all Canadian SMEs have found tracking expenses and reconciling their books to be a major challenge. If your team is growing, there’s a good chance your expenses are too, which means getting a handle on your expense management is key. Finding a better way to track and manage corporate spending can save you thousands of dollars a year – and we’re here to let you in on the solution. 

It pays to keep track.

Canada Revenue Agency requires Canadian businesses to keep records of all transactions to support their income and corporate expense claims. Companies can claim tax deductions on expenses, but only if they have a valid proof of purchase and can prove it was a business expense. How can they do this? 🤔  By providing a receipt. 🧾  
If your corporate receipts aren’t organized or properly submitted, you won’t be able to use these expenses as a tax reduction, which means less money back in your pocket come tax season. That’s why companies need to invest in the proper tools to enable managers to easily collect and record receipts from employees all year round. This will help them easily track their expenses and have a better picture of where their money is going, who is spending it and why. When it comes time to file taxes, you’ll feel like a major weight is lifted off your shoulder!
