VIII. Tips and Practical Cases

The following tips are summarized based on long-term user feedback and can help you maximize the software’s value:

Tip 1: Use Folder Monitoring for Automatic Archiving

In “Preferences” > “Import”, enable “Folder Monitoring”. Set the scanner’s output directory or WeChat download folder as the monitored path. After each scan or electronic invoice download, Receipts will automatically capture and categorize. It is recommended to clean the monitored folder every Monday to avoid duplicate imports.

Tip 2: Custom Tags and Smart Rules

Create tags for different projects, such as “Travel Expenses” and “Office Supplies”. In “Smart Rules”, set conditions: if the amount is greater than 500 yuan, automatically mark as “Large Expense”. This way, at year-end tax filing, you can simply click the tag to export the corresponding data, saving the hassle of manual filtering.

Tip 3: Combine with Shortcuts for One-Click Report Generation

macOS Monterey and later support Shortcuts. Create a new shortcut: Open Receipts database → Filter by “Last Month” → Export as PDF. Pin the shortcut to the menu bar, and click it once at the beginning of each month to automatically generate a monthly financial report.
