Expenses by Vendor
The Expenses by Vendor report shows a ranked list of every vendor you've paid, with totals for any period. It's the fastest way to see where your money is going and spot spending that's higher than expected.
Go to Accounting → Expenses by Vendor.
What you're looking at
Each row represents a vendor (counterparty), with the total amount paid during the selected period. Click any vendor to drill into the individual transactions that make up their total.
Change the date range
Use the date picker to select any period. If you have multiple entities, use the entity dropdown to view a single business or all of them combined.
When to use it
- To review your biggest expenses at a glance
- To identify vendors you're paying regularly that you may want to renegotiate or cancel
- To prepare for a budget conversation with your accountant
- To answer the question: who did I pay the most last year?
Counterparties
For vendors to appear accurately in this report, transactions need to have a counterparty assigned. Kick assigns counterparties automatically for most transactions, and you can set Rules to ensure specific vendors are always tagged correctly.
