If you use a cashbook or POS system, you can record your income in Accountable without having to enter each individual transaction.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\uddc2\ufe0f Why You Can Bundle Your Income<\/h2>\n

\n

Thanks to your POS system, which documents all sales, you can easily summarize your income for a day or a week and enter only the total amount into Accountable.<\/p>\n

\n

This saves you time and remains fully compliant. \u2705<\/p>\n

\n

Important: You must always be able to prove when and how much you\u2019ve earned – and that’s exactly what your cashbook or POS system helps you do.<\/p>\n

\n

\ud83d\udca1Tip<\/b>: Many electronic POS systems generate a Z-report at the end of the day. This report sums up all sales of the day and is the perfect proof for your bundled income in Accountable.<\/p>\n

\ud83e\uddfe How to record your cash income in Accountable<\/b><\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. \n

    Create a new “Add non-invoice revenue”: <\/p>\n

    Go to “Income” > click on the 3 dots in the top right > select “Add non-invoice revenue”<\/p>\n

    <\/div>\n

    \n<\/li>\n

  2. \n

    Upload your receipt (the total sales overview) using the “Upload document” button.<\/p>\n

    Important: You can choose whether to record the income for one day or the entire week.<\/p>\n

    <\/div>\n

    \n<\/li>\n

  3. \n

    Select the category “Sale of Goods.”<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  4. \n

    Enter the total amount and tax rate:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • \n

      Example: Enter the total for your income with 19% VAT and select VAT rate: 19%.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      Example: If you also had income with 7% VAT, add a new item for that amount and select VAT rate: 7%.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      <\/div>\n

      \n

      \n

      \ud83d\udca1 Good to know:<\/b><\/h2>\n
        \n
      • \n

        You can upload your daily or weekly reports from your POS system at any time as proof for the corresponding income in Accountable.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        Bundling is only allowed for B2C sales – meaning sales to private customers – within Germany.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        For B2B sales – meaning transactions with other businesses – each income must be recorded individually through an invoice.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        Remember: Even if you upload your receipts in Accountable, the original documents must still be kept physically for 10 years.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        \n

        \n

        \u2753 FAQ<\/h2>\n

        Can I bundle multiple weeks?<\/b><\/h3>\n

        \u27a1\ufe0f No, for tax purposes, you should bundle your income weekly at the latest to maintain a clear connection to the cash receipts.<\/p>\n

        \n

        What happens if I have multiple VAT rates?<\/b><\/h3>\n

        \u27a1\ufe0f Add an item for each VAT rate in your income – this keeps your data accurate.<\/p>\n

        \n

        How do I prove my cash income?<\/b><\/h3>\n

        \u27a1\ufe0f Use the reports or export functions of your POS system. Be sure to keep them safe in case the tax office requests proof.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
