External Links

Reference invoices, documents, and web resources from transactions using external links in Bkper.

External links let you reference related information — invoices in another system, supporting documents, or any web resource — directly from a transaction. Unlike attachments (which store the file in Bkper), external links point to a URL in an external system. You can add more than one link to the same transaction.

There are two ways to add an external link.

Click the link icon on the transaction and paste the URL.

Directly in the input field

Include the URL in the input field when recording the transaction. Bkper detects it automatically and stores it as an external link.

Open the transaction and click the trash icon next to the link you want to remove.

Combining with attachments

You can use both external links and file attachments on the same transaction. Attach the receipt as a file and link to the invoice in your billing system — giving you both a local copy and a reference to the source. Transactions recorded from a mobile device also include a geo-reference link automatically.
