How to Store Shipping Invoices and Delivery Fees

Delivery fees may appear on the goods invoice, in a separate carrier invoice or in a marketplace email. Without their relationship, you may miss a cost, count it twice or classify tax incorrectly. ReceiptBook stores records and files; accounting rules decide the final treatment.

Identify the related transaction

Record vendor, order number, invoice number, date, currency, shipping fee, tax and original order. If shipping is already part of the total invoice, do not add it as another transaction. If the carrier issues a separate invoice, link the order number and check totals.

Review the source and OCR

Download PDF or XML or capture every page. Compare delivery fee, fuel surcharge, discount, VAT and total with the original. Marketplaces may send several emails for one order; keep the source and status. See ReceiptBook.

Categorise and hand off

Shipping may use a different category from goods. Record the rule or ask an accountant. For mixed costs, note the related and unclear portions. Before export, find duplicates, keep the original and add exceptions for missing files, unclear fees, unlinked credits or mismatched totals.

Note: ReceiptBook does not determine locally accepted expenses or VAT.

Quality checks and common mistakes

Long-form guidance is most useful when it explains the boundaries as well as the happy path. Before relying on a ReceiptBook record, run the checks below. They help separate a missing input from a negative result, an approximate value from a verified value, and a convenient summary from the original evidence.

Check 1

Do not start with the conclusion. Write down the question, the person or property involved and the time period first. In ReceiptBook, keep the source, context and limitation close to the record so the next review can reproduce the decision.

Check 2

Do not mix old and new records without a date. Keep the original observation visible when you add a correction or update. In ReceiptBook, keep the source, context and limitation close to the record so the next review can reproduce the decision.

Check 3

Do not treat a missing field as proof that the event, ingredient, expense or condition does not exist. In ReceiptBook, keep the source, context and limitation close to the record so the next review can reproduce the decision.

Check 4

Do not share a polished summary before checking the original image, note, label, receipt or export behind it. In ReceiptBook, keep the source, context and limitation close to the record so the next review can reproduce the decision.

Check 5

Do not use an app record as a substitute for a professional, medical, legal, financial or safety decision when the situation requires one. In ReceiptBook, keep the source, context and limitation close to the record so the next review can reproduce the decision.
