Keep track of your bills

"Which email was the bill in?" Bills answers that. Rookery reads the invoices and statements that come in, pulls out who it's from, the amount and the due date, and keeps them in one list.

See what's due

  1. Open Bills in the sidebar.
  2. Bills are grouped into Overdue, Due this week, Later and Paid in the last 30 days. Each group shows its total.
  3. Each bill shows who it's from, the amount and the due date, with links to the File and the Email it came in.

Mark a bill

  • Click Paid when you've paid it. It moves to the paid list.
  • Click Not a bill if Rookery got it wrong. It leaves the list.
  • Changed your mind? Click Not paid yet on a paid bill.

Catch bills written in the email

By default, Rookery reads bills that come as attached files. Some bills are written in the email itself. To catch those too:

  1. Go to Settings → Just me. Only owners and admins can change this.
  2. Under Just-me mode, tick Find bills in emails.
  3. Save.

Good to know

  • Overdue bills and bills due within 7 days show on Today, with a Mark paid button, and in your daily brief. There are no separate bill alerts.
  • The number next to Bills in the sidebar counts bills due within a week.
  • Receipts count as already paid, so they don't show up as bills.
  • Your choices stick, even if Rookery reads the file again.
  • Every bill's file is also kept in Documents.
