Job payments and materials expenses feed into your tax estimate and, if you're GST registered, your BAS worksheet. Keep the supporting records ready for review.
Is Bilbee built for a sole trader or a whole crew?
It's built for an Australian sole trader managing their own invoices, expenses and tax records. It isn't a job-dispatch, staff-rostering, payroll or inventory system.
Can I take a deposit before starting work?
Yes. Once a quote is accepted, raise a deposit invoice for a percentage of it. When you convert the quote later, the balance takes the linked deposit invoices into account.
Can I reuse prices for common jobs?
Yes. Save products and services in your catalogue and use them on quotes and invoices, so you don't have to re-enter the same descriptions and rates.
Which plan do I need?
Free includes five issued invoices a month, unlimited quotes, expense records, receipt uploads, bank CSV import and tax tools. Standard adds unlimited invoices, time tracking, automatic reminders and 10 receipt inbox reads a month. Pro adds unlimited receipt inbox reads, scheduled sends and optional recurring auto-send.
Does Bilbee lodge my BAS or TPAR?
No. Bilbee prepares records and worksheets for you to review. Where relevant, it can generate a TPAR from recorded contractor payments. You or your accountant still handle lodgement.
