In bookkeeping, the principle of no posting without a receipt applies. That's why with bexio, we make it possible for you to attach your receipts (files) directly where you enter the receipts in the system and where the booking is made. You also have the option of sharing the attached files with your customers, so that they can view the files online. |

Please note for shipping: only use supported file formats. And do not add any additional files as attachments, nor any email text, to ensure the upload succeeds. |
Files attached to documents cannot be deleted. The links of attached files can be seen below the overview. A file can also be linked to several documents.

Information about OKI printer: Unfortunately we do not support the OKI printer series. The reason for this is that OKI printers send the scanned documents in a different format, which cannot be processed in bexio. You can still upload your receipts using our bexio Scanner App or upload your documents to your computer so that you can upload them via your inbox (Uploading files in your inbox). |
Uploading/attaching files in documents
Open an existing document or create a new one. (Document means quotes, orders, supplier invoices, invoices, credit notes, expenses and manual postings.)
If you have created a new document or have opened an existing one, a document icon will appear on the right. Click on this icon; there are two ways here to attach your file.
"Add files from Inbox"
1. This action allows you to attach a file directly from your Inbox.
2. Select the desired files and click on "Add Files".
"Upload Files"
1. "Upload Files" allows you to select and upload a file from your computer.
2. Click on "Select Files" to browse your computer for the desired file.
3. Select your file from your computer documents. You will then have successfully uploaded your files in the document.
