Hi there, @king916-btintern.

 

I'm here to share some insights about what's the best thing to do for your paper receipts.

 

QuickBooks can record new transactions from images of physical receipts by taking a snap. It means that the receipt has been tied to the entry that you made. This will be categorised easily.

 

However, it would be better to keep the copies of your receipts in case you'll encounter data loss or you need to upload the receipts to transactions you already entered in QuickBooks.

 

For more details about how snapping receipts work in QuickBooks Self-Employed, you can always read through this link: Learn how to create a new transaction from a receipt image.

 

Know that my doors are always open to help if you have more questions about QuickBooks. I'll make sure you're all set. Have a nice day!
