Bezala - Latest updates

Hi Bezala users,

We released our Gmail™ Add-on for automatic receipt forwarding earlier this year, and today we shipped a major upgrade to how it detects receipts.

The add-on now looks for actual payment evidence — things like card numbers, total amounts, VAT lines, and invoice numbers — instead of just receipt-related words. This means far fewer non-receipt emails (newsletters, notifications) get forwarded, while real receipts are caught more reliably. Even an email that just says "receipt attached" with a PDF now gets picked up.

We also extended detection to all major European languages, so receipts in French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Estonian, and Danish are now recognized alongside Finnish, Swedish, Norwegian, German, and English.

Finally, we added a Scan now button — if you just received a receipt and don't want to wait for the hourly automatic scan, open the Bezala sidebar in Gmail and scan immediately.

You can find the add-on on the Google Workspace Marketplace.

“Quantity” field has been added to the reward form. This feature makes it easy to request compensation for multiple days using the same form.

Hi Bezala managers,

We are continuously developing our newest feature, Time & Attendance. Our latest update will help you plan vacations for your team.

We are happy to report that managers can now select several employees in the Absence tab’s employee filter to compare absences for multiple employees at the same time.

Simply click on the employees who should not be on vacation at the same time to make your team’s vacation calendar even easier to manage.

Hi Bezala Manager role users,

we can now happily report that our new Action Log feature is live:

1. Click main menu ==> Accounting Reports

2. Click the “Action Log”-tab.

The Action Log displays timestamps of most actions taken related to expenses and users, from 13th of July 2026 forward.

YEL deductions from rewards
It is now possible to deduct the employer’s health insurance contribution from the rewards entered into Bezala.

Splitting per diems to multiple cost centers

In Bezala's browser version, it is now possible to allocate a per diem claim to multiple cost centers.

It is now possible to send transactions from Bezala to Procountor as “approved,” meaning that the created purchase invoices and memo vouchers no longer necessarily need to be approved in Procountor.

To enable this setting, go to Company settings -> Reimbursement & Accounting -> Voucher settings -> check "Automatically approve transactions" and click "Save".

• The message created by the SEPA file for the bank statement will be as follows (in the company’s language): "Travel and expense reimbursements [date] [company name]", e.g. “Travel and expense reimbursements 28.4.2026 Company Ltd”.
• If the receipt form has a yellow credit card icon on it:

1. The tooltip of the icon & an additional info text under the amount field will show the original purchase price from the credit card statement row corresponding to the receipt
2. It's possible to update to price on the receipt form to the one on the corresponding credit card bill row either by clicking on the cog icon and selecting "Update price from Credit Card Bill" or clicking on the "Use bill price" link under the amount field

Bezala is now able to send IR reports for users who don’t have a Finnish SSN.

Bezala now supports the handling of reverse VAT.

Every credit card receipt form now has a credit card icon. That icon’s colour can be green, yellow or red:

- green: “Connected to a Card Transaction, same sum”
- yellow: “Price differs from Card Transaction“
- red: “Not connected to Card Transaction”
