Cosmic Bills App for Reckon Hosted — Australia
Cosmic Bills automates your bills. It removes the painful part of accounts payable — entering bills with multiple line items by hand — so you can reduce what accounts payable costs you and get the routine work off your team.
Did you create the API user in your Reckon data file?
Reckon's API needs a dedicated user inside your own company file, with full access. Choose your own username and password for it — do not reuse the ones the previous version of this page published.

Registering Cosmic Bills against your Reckon data file
- 1.Create a new user inside your Reckon data file and give it full access.
- 2.Choose a username and password of your own for that user, and keep them private.
- 3.Select your company data file from the dropdown in the Cosmic Bills setup panel — there is no need to copy and paste the path.
This is how Cosmic Bills integrates with your Reckon data file. We do not have access to your data file. It is a Reckon API requirement only.

Take the initial step
Accounts payable is an important and time-sensitive requirement for any medium to large business. Reducing the effort it takes reduces its cost, and frees the same people for the work that needs their judgement.

Why businesses use Cosmic Bills

Save money
Cosmic Bills was built to help businesses spend less on processing bills. Rather than hiring someone to key invoices, the extraction does the typing and your team checks the result.

Save time
A bill with twenty lines takes as long to type as a bill with one takes to check. Pulling the detail off the document removes the slow part and leaves the part that needs judgement.

User friendly interface
The scanning runs on machine learning, but that does not make it complicated to use. The interface is a four-step flow and takes very little training to pick up.
