Manage Credit Card Bills and Receipts
Key CashFlow allows you to record payments you make to your credit cards, and record payments made via a credit card. The steps below work with all accounting software versions we sync with, except Xero.

We recommend using Key CashFlow to track only Payables, and recording credit card charges in the accounting software.
However, to store credit card receipts / bill paid via credit card in Key CashFlow there are two options:
- Use the Documents function in Key CashFlow to store credit card receipts as Vendor Documents for record-keeping requirements. To do this, send the documents into your Key CashFlow Inbox via email or drag and drop, then process the file in the Inbox as a Vendor Document.
