Smartbills reads each tax from each receipt line, sending the GST to your claim and keeping the PST in the expense.
Saskatchewan PST and GST on separate lines
The GST at 5% and the PST at 6% stay as separate amounts on each receipt line, including on services and software that carry PST. The input tax credit is built from the GST alone, and the PST stays in the cost of what was bought.
- GST and PST kept apart on every line
- PST on software and services recorded as charged
- Only the GST sent to the input tax credit
PST on services, booked to the cost
Saskatchewan's 6% PST reaches well beyond goods: repairs, contractor services and software subscriptions carry it too, and none of it comes back as a credit. Smartbills books each PST line to the expense it belongs to and claims only the 5% GST.
- PST on services kept on its own line
- Booked to the cost, never claimed
- Only the GST claimed as an ITC
Why teams switch
The tax is on the receipt, not the card statement.
We claim 11% of every total because nobody has time to split it.
GST and PST come in as separate amounts from the receipt. Only the GST reaches the claim.
Our software subscriptions carry PST, and it's buried in the card total.
The receipt or invoice from the vendor is pulled from the mailbox with the PST on its own line.
Receipts from the field come back crumpled, if they come back at all.
Receipts come from the merchant and the mailbox as purchases happen, matched to the card line.
Before and after
What changes on a Saskatchewan receipt.
11% of the total is quick, and it claims PST that was never recoverable. The receipt already splits the two.
| Capability | Card statement and photos | With Smartbills |
|---|---|---|
| GST and PST | 11% of the total | Two amounts, from the receipt |
| PST in the claim | Often claimed by mistake | Kept in the expense |
| PST on software | Hidden in the card total | On its own line |
| Getting receipts in | Photos at month end | From the merchant or the mailbox |
