Receipts vs bills

Talisk captures expenses on two rails, and both live under Ledger › Expenses in one Bills and Receipts list:

A Bill is an obligation to pay. It sits in Accounts Payable until you match it to the bank transaction that pays it.
A Receipt is proof of a payment you've already made. It posts the expense straight away: there's no AP to clear.

Each row shows a Bill or Receipt badge, and the segmented All · Bills · Receipts · Unpaid filter narrows the list ("Unpaid" is your open-AP lens). Approved bills show a purple Match pill; approved receipts show a green Post pill. Reach for a Bill when the money is still owed, and a Receipt when it's already out the door.

Good to know: A receipt does not create Accounts Payable: it records money already spent. Use a Bill while you still owe the money; use a Receipt when it's already paid.
