Less chasing, clearer jobs

Bring the whole job together.

Customer details in messages, material receipts in the van and invoice totals in a spreadsheet make it hard to see where a job really stands.

TaxBuddie keeps the practical and financial record around the job, from first quote to final payment status.

Know what needs attention

See planned, active and completed jobs with clear paid or unpaid status at a glance.

Protect your margin

Compare the job price with recorded materials and linked expenses before costs get forgotten.

Keep the paper trail

Connect quotes, invoices, customer details, materials and receipt evidence to the right job.

A simpler workflow

From enquiry to paid job.

Keep records current while the details are fresh, without turning the evening into another shift.

Questions from trades

Trade job management FAQs

Clear answers before you decide whether TaxBuddie suits the way you work.

Can I import bank transactions as business expenses?

Yes. Upload a GBP bank CSV, review outgoing payments and save approved business costs. Match existing receipts and keep the original CSV privately in your account. Pro remembers your categories and personal exclusions for later statements.

Can I export invoices and business records?

Yes. Share mobile invoice PDFs with customers and export CSV report data for your records or accountant. TaxBuddie does not process customer payments or submit records to HMRC.

Is TaxBuddie suitable for a sole trader?

Yes. The trade workflow is focused on self-employed tradespeople and small operators who need a straightforward place for jobs and records.

Can I track whether a customer has paid?

Yes. Jobs and invoices can be marked paid or unpaid. TaxBuddie records the status but does not process the customer’s payment.

Can I include materials on an invoice?

Yes. Recorded materials can be reflected in linked invoice items, helping the job totals stay consistent when costs change.

What happens when I delete a job?

TaxBuddie warns you first because deleting a job also removes its linked quotes and invoices, keeping related records consistent.

Does TaxBuddie file with HMRC?

No. TaxBuddie provides record keeping and exports. It does not submit tax returns or MTD updates to HMRC.
