Plumber Guide

How to Automate Expense & Receipt Tracking as a Plumber

You just spent $340 at Ferguson Supply on P-traps and fittings for three different jobs. Now those receipts are fading in your truck console, and you can't remember which customer owes for what. Come tax season, that shoebox of thermal paper costs you thousands in missed deductions.

The Current Reality

The Manual Way

Shoving receipts into the glovebox, then wasting Sunday night trying to match faded paper to handwritten invoices.

2 hours per week
  1. Dig crumpled receipts out of pockets and the truck console all week
  2. Spread thermal paper on the kitchen table to read the faded ink
  3. Type line items into a spreadsheet by hand, guessing which job they fit
  4. Stuff physical copies in a shoebox, knowing half will be unreadable by April
