Golf-club invoices. Ready for the books.

From clubhouse supplies to course maintenance, one supplier invoice can cover several kinds of cost. Capture the detail, reuse saved coding and let the people who know the purchase provide sign-off when needed.

14 days free, no payment details needed.

Prepare the detail your team needs.

Use the invoice as the source, then apply the accounting decisions your business needs.

  • Several costs on one invoice

    A wholesaler bill can include food, cleaning products and delivery. On a line-item plan, capture the individual descriptions and assign the appropriate account and tax code to each.

  • Recurring maintenance charges

    Reuse the last exported coding for the same supplier and exact line description. Set keyword rules for descriptions that change with a month, date or reference.

  • Shared overheads

    Use Bill Split for an allocation such as premises costs shared between departments. One-off and saved splits are available with Xero and QuickBooks; recurring supplier splits also support FreeAgent.

Separate the work. Connect the books.

A folder can represent a whole company, a site, a department or a project. Organise documents around the people doing the work, even when the accounts stay together.

  1. A destination for each team

    Use folders for the clubhouse, course team or individual clubs, according to your responsibilities. Each folder has its own email address for invoices, so the document starts in the right workspace.

  2. People and rules for that folder

    Invite the people who need that folder and set its supplier coding and optional approval workflows. Owners and Managers can manage every folder; folder members work within their assigned access.

  3. Several folders, one accounting connection

    Connect multiple folders to the same Xero, QuickBooks Online or FreeAgent organisation. Use the supported accounting codes and tracking fields to identify costs in the ledger; a folder name alone does not create an accounting category.

Invoice approvals that fit your business.

Use sign-off where it helps. It is included in Datamolino and optional for each folder.

Let the person who knows the purchase decide

The course manager can confirm an equipment hire, while the clubhouse manager reviews catering purchases. The approver checks the purchase and amount, and approves or rejects the invoice on the web or in the mobile app.

Let finance complete the accounting

Configure the workflow so finance can finish account codes, tax and supported tracking fields after sign-off and before export. The setup guide explains the editing permissions and when to leave automatic export off.

Match the tool to the work

If capture, coding and invoice sign-off cover your process, you may be able to reduce the cost of a separate approval subscription. Compare wider requirements such as purchase-order matching, budget checks and payment controls before replacing ApprovalMax.

Questions about this workflow

Can several folders connect to the same accounting organisation?

Yes. Multiple Datamolino folders can connect to the same Xero organisation, QuickBooks Online company or FreeAgent account. Each folder has its own document intake, members and settings. A business account is for one accounting company; a practice account can serve multiple client companies.

Do we have to use invoice approvals?

No. Approvals are included in your subscription and enabled per folder. Use them where purchase sign-off is useful, or capture, code and export without approval stages.

Are line items included in every plan?

Choose a subscription with line-item extraction when you need individual invoice lines. Totals-only plans do not include it. The pricing page lets you compare the options for your document volume.

Do you have a golf-club customer example?

Yes. The Accountancy Matters story describes outsourced accounting for UK golf clubs and detailed Xero invoice coding. Its 2024 results are customer estimates, rather than a promise for every club.
