Vendor bill tracker

Every bill you entered, soonest due first, with what it was for.

What this is for

A vendor sends a bill, it goes in a pile, and three weeks later somebody asks whether it was paid. The answer is usually “probably”. This is the list that makes it “yes, on the fourteenth” — every bill you have entered, soonest due first, with what it was for and which building it belongs to.

A bill with no due date sorts by its own date rather than to the bottom of the list. Plenty of vendors state none, and pushing those to the end is exactly how they get forgotten.

Where this stops, deliberately

This is not accounting and the line is worth stating plainly rather than leaving for somebody to discover. There is no general ledger, no chart of accounts, no double entry and no period close. Nothing is reconciled against a bank, because this tool never sees a bank. It moves no money: marking a bill paid records that you paid it and does not pay it.

It computes no tax and connects to no accounting package. If you need the numbers somewhere else, export the CSV — a file you download is not an integration, and calling it one would be the kind of claim this product does not make.

The rest of the money side

The expense & receipt log is the other half: what somebody spent at a counter, rather than what a vendor billed you. Money coming the other way lives in the estimate and invoice tool, and what a job actually cost against what it was quoted at is job profit. A purchase order is what you send before the bill arrives.

Questions people ask

Is this accounting software?
No, and the distinction is not a technicality. There is no general ledger here, no chart of accounts, no double entry and no period close. Nothing is reconciled against a bank account, because this tool never sees one. It is a list of bills you have entered, sorted by when they are due, with a note of which ones you have paid.
Does marking a bill paid actually pay it?
No. It records that you paid it. This tool moves no money — there is no card processing, no ACH and no payout — and it does not tell your bank or your vendor anything. If you mark a bill paid and have not paid it, the only thing that changes is what this list says.
Does it connect to QuickBooks or any accounting package?
No. There is no integration with any accounting system, and none is planned as part of this tool. Nothing is imported and nothing is pushed anywhere. What you can do is download what you have entered as a CSV file, which is a file on your computer rather than a connection to anything.
What is the category field for?
Your own sorting, in your own words — "parts", "subcontractor", "service contract". It is not a tax category, not a deduction class and not an account code. This tool computes no tax and takes no position on how anything should be classified for one; that is a question for whoever prepares your return.
Do the totals tell me what I owe?
They tell you the sum of what has been entered on this device and not marked paid. That is arithmetic, not a balance. Any bill nobody typed in is not in the total, which on a real device is usually some of them.
Where does the data go?
Nowhere. It is stored in your browser on the device you typed it on. It is not sent to a server, not synced between devices and not visible to us. Clearing your browser data removes it, so use the backup export if it matters.

This is a list of bills you have entered, with the dates you gave them. It is not accounting: there is no ledger here, nothing is reconciled against a bank, and marking a bill paid records that you paid it — it does not pay it. The totals are sums of what is on this device and nothing else.
