Your Accounting tab - income, expenses, and what you keep

Step by step

1. 1

   Read the summary card

   The card at the top sums up the period. If you're on a commission arrangement with a studio, it breaks down as Gross Income → Studio Cut → Your Income, then your expenses and Net Profit. With no studio cut, it's the simpler Total Income → Total Expenses → Net Profit. See Studio cut vs your net for the breakdown.

2. 2

   Know where your income comes from

   Three things feed your income:

   • Completed sessions — these flow in automatically once a session is marked complete.
   • Kept deposits — when a booking was cancelled or no-showed and you kept the deposit.
   • Manual income — anything you add by hand (a walk-in, a tip, an older session).
3. 3

   See your expenses

   The Expenses tab lists what you've recorded, grouped by category. You add and edit these yourself — see the next guide.

4. 4

   Pick the period

   Tap the period at the top to change the date range. The summary, the lists, and the export all follow whatever period you pick.

Frequently asked questions

Why does a completed session show no income, or my numbers look low?

Income only counts a session once it's marked complete. A confirmed-but-not-yet-done session doesn't count yet.

I work in a currency that isn't the euro. Will my totals be right?

Yes — the tab shows your own currency. If your income spans more than one currency, a combined total is shown using approximate rates — see How InkMap shows amounts in one currency.
