A system for handling and storing a non-physical sales receipt, thereby updating one or more accounting and/or bookkeeping systems, the system comprising:
- a computing and/or cloud system having a processor and/or a database of the system in electronic communication with a point-of-sale (POS) computing device, that receives, handles, and stores information relating to a non-physical sales receipt generated when a user purchases an item from a POS via the POS computing device when the user pays with one or more of a credit card, a debit card, a mobile phone, a bank account, cash or another payment device and provides one or more unique user identification parameters, each linking to a communication address of the user;
- the POS being a physical or online location where sales transactions are made;
- the POS computing system comprising one or more of a payment terminal, a desktop computer, a laptop computer, a smartphone, a smart device, a processor, a database, and a tablet, wherein software on the POS computing device compares the unique user identification parameter with a list of unique user identification parameters, each pointing to a user, and/or a communication address of the user, that identifies a user profile in the database;
- wherein the POS computing device generates a non-physical sales receipt and information that includes a list of purchase related information, and sends the non-physical sales receipt and the purchase related information to the processor using the communication address of the user;
- the non-physical sales receipt comprising one or more of a digital sales receipt, electronic sales receipt, other non-physical form, and/or a physical sales receipt that has been transformed into a digital sales receipt and/or an electronic sales receipt, by means of the user photographing that physical sales receipt;
- the purchase related information comprising both purchase related information and purchase related parameters including one or more of name of the POS, purchase date and time, prices relating to purchase location or address of seller, number of purchased items, category of each purchased item, manufacturer, taxes paid, product identifier code that is scannable or computer readable or combinations thereof;
- wherein the processor and/or a database of the computing and/or cloud system analyzes and compares the non-physical sales receipt and purchase related information received, and one or more account details and one or more account numbers relating to the purchase and the user are identified based on configurable parameters, and the processor and/or a database stores the non-physical sales receipt and the purchase related information corresponding to the one or more account details and the one or more account numbers that have been identified electronically in the processor and/or database of the computing and/or cloud system;
- and
- wherein the account details are a part of a bookkeeping and/or accounting module of the computing and/or cloud system that receives and stores the non-physical sales receipt and the purchase related information, analyzing and updating accounting and/or bookkeeping records and pushes an updated user profile and/or account to a user computing device that mirrors a user profile maintained on the processor and/or database, enabling instant access by the user computing device to the updated user profile account.

- (c) analyzing and relating the non-physical sales receipt and purchase related information, received to one or more account details and one or more account numbers relating to the purchase and the user, identified based on configurable parameters, and storing electronically, using the processor and/or a database of the computing and/or cloud system, the non-physical sales receipt and the purchase related information based on the one or more account details and the one or more account numbers that have been identified;
- (d) analyzing and updating accounting and/or bookkeeping records, wherein the account details are a part of a bookkeeping module of the computing and/or cloud system that receives and stores the non-physical sales receipt and the purchase related information used for analyzing and updating accounting and/or bookkeeping records, and
