For courier owners and drivers who review their own recorded costs.

01Start here

Courier accounts mix delivery costs with overhead.

How Backbuild solves it

Give the delivery work its own subtotal.

Arrange your chosen accounts into groups. Keep the recorded courier costs visible alongside your other expenses.

The delivery work has its own subtotal.

You review the account groups and their recorded totals.

  1. You choose separate account groups for delivery work and overhead.
  2. You enter the expenses under your chosen accounts.
  3. Your bookkeeper worker totals the classified entries.
  4. You review the delivery subtotal alongside overhead.

The outcome

Compare the totals from your chosen accounts.

Your classifications determine the groups. The view covers the expenses you have entered.

Grow from there

Add the rest of Backbuild as you grow.
