Tax management for your expenses
Now you have the ability to add taxes to your expense categories. The benefit of this is that once you set the taxes you want to associate with a given category, all you need to do is enter an expense total and we will backwards calculate the amount of tax on the expense for you.

Hey folks, just a quick note that FreshBooks will be briefly unavailable this Thursday morning while we perform an upgrade.
When will FreshBooks be unavailable?
The upgrade takes place Thursday, May 15th at 11:30 AM GMT (that’s 4:30 AM PT, 7:30 AM ET, et cetera). It’s expected to take half an hour. During this time there will be periods when you will be unable to access your FreshBooks account.
Once the upgrade is complete, watch our blog and your e-mail inbox to find out what’s new!
