Tax filing on tymora

Income, expenses, and taxes feel like piecing together a puzzle of crumpled receipts, mismatched spreadsheets, and endless back-and-forth emails with your accountant. You’re not alone.

In fact, small businesses often spend dozens of hours every year manually preparing records for tax filing. The good news? Tymora makes it simple by recording every dollar earned and spent in one place — so when it’s time to file taxes, everything you need is already organized, accurate, and ready to go.

Here’s how Tymora can help you track, review, and prepare for tax filing.

How Do I Add Expenses in Tymora?

If you’re a Tymora user with access to the Finance module, you can easily record and manage expenses for your business. This feature is automatically available for you to use — no extra setup required.

For an in-depth look, we’ve outlined the steps below.

Step 1: Add the vendor

Before creating any invoice, you’ll need to add your Vendors details.

  1. Go to Finance → Vendors.
  2. Click + New Vendor in the top-right corner.
  3. Enter the vendor name and other details if available — such as country, email, phone, or tags.
  4. Click Save.

If the vendor is already in your list, you can skip this and just select them when adding an expense.

Step 2: Create a new expense

Step 3: Choose an expense category

From the Category dropdown, select the type of expense. This helps keep your reporting organized.

Examples include:

  • Personnel
  • Technology
  • Sales and Marketing
  • Operations
  • Cost of Good Solds
  • General and Administrative

Tip: Choosing the correct category makes financial reports more accurate and useful.

Step 4: Select the purchase date

In the Vendor field, start typing the vendor’s name.

Upload receipts, invoices, or payment proofs by clicking the Document upload area. This keeps all your expense records stored safely in one place.

Step 9: Apply tax

In the Tax field, enter the percentage rate. Tymora will calculate the amount automatically and show it in the Order Summary.

Example:

  • Subtotal: ₹4,500
  • Tax: 12% → ₹540
  • Total: ₹5,040

Tip: The tax ID format depends on your country. For example, in India, you’ll enter a GSTIN. In Iraq, it will be a different ID, or other countries, you’ll enter what applies locally. Tymora supports multiple regions, so you can select the right one based on your country.

Step 10: Save the expense

Tracking What You Earn

Just like expenses keep your costs in order, your income is automatically managed through invoices in Tymora.
Every time you send an invoice and record a payment, Tymora adds it to your income records — no extra steps needed.

So when it’s time for reports or taxes, you’ll already see both sides of your books: money going out (expenses) and money coming in (income).

Now that expenses are sorted, the other side of tax filing is income.
