What you get

Statements read

Native and scanned PDF statements, plus CSV and Excel exports from online banking.

Account and VAT on every line

Each bank line gets an account from your chart and a VAT treatment.

Invoices matched

Invoices are extracted and matched to the bank payments that settle them.

Learns per client

Corrections are remembered for each client company, so the same vendor lands in the same account next month.

Unsure lines flagged

When rules and past corrections disagree, or confidence is low, the line goes to review instead of being guessed.

Hand-off to Zoho Books

Approved entries are sent to your Zoho Books organisation through its API, set up for your accounts during the project.

Frequently asked questions

Have a question that is not here?

How is the Zoho Books connection set up for our firm?

It is set up as a project for your firm: we map your chart of accounts and VAT treatments, agree how entries reach Zoho Books, and test on your own documents before going live.

Which documents can it read?

Native or scanned PDF bank statements, CSV and XLSX bank exports, plus supplier and customer invoices. Convert older XLS spreadsheets to XLSX before upload.

Does anything reach Zoho Books without review?

No. Lines Paperwork is unsure of are flagged, and your accountant approves the result before it is entered.

Which chart of accounts does it use?

Yours. The default is a 60-account chart for UAE SMEs, and your own accounts are mapped during setup.

Which VAT treatments are supported?

Standard rate, zero-rated, exempt, out of scope and reverse charge. Each account has a default treatment, and a transaction can override it.

How is it priced?

As a custom project: a paid proof of concept on your documents first, then setup and a monthly support fee.
