In Zeevou, an Expense is the actual cost you record under Finance → Expenses. Each expense includes an amount, tax, and allocation (property, unit, or booking).
An Expense Type is the category or label you create (for example, “Cleaning Fee – HK”) to organise those costs. Using Expense Types helps you:
Keep your financial records structured
Maintain cleaner reports
Improve visibility of owner profitability in Monthly Profit Reports
Go to Finance → Expenses.
Click the arrow next to Expenses.
Select Expense Types.
On the Expense Types dashboard, you can:
