Frequently asked questions

Is BitLegacy an eZee alternative for expense tracking in India?

For small hotels and homestays that want GST worked out on every bill, yes. As of Oct 2026, eZee’s public docs don’t show GSTIN validation, an automatic CGST/SGST vs IGST split on expenses, or an input credit report by vendor GSTIN. eZee does show a live Tally integration.

Does eZee Absolute integrate with Tally?

Yes. eZee’s support site has a Tally section covering how to connect PMS and POS to Tally through the eZee Agent Service. BitLegacy exports Tally XML vouchers for your accountant to import.

Can I track supplier dues and part payments?

In BitLegacy, mark a bill unpaid with a due date, record part payments and see each vendor’s balance, ledger and overdue bills. As of Oct 2026, eZee’s public docs don’t show due dates, part payments or overdue views for expenses.

Does the Finance add-on cost extra?

No. Finance & Expenses is a free add-on, included at no extra cost on BitLegacy. As of Oct 2026, eZee’s and Hotelogix’s public docs don’t show a separate price for their expense features.

Can I send my expenses to Tally or Zoho Books?

Yes. Export for accountant creates a Tally XML file (payment and receipt vouchers with CGST, SGST and IGST input ledgers and your category-to-ledger mapping) and a Zoho Books expense CSV for the date range you pick. It is a file your accountant imports, not a live sync.

Does it work for homestays as well as hotels?

Yes. Finance & Expenses runs for hotel, homestay and restaurant properties, per property.

Does BitLegacy file my GST return?

No. The GST input credit report and CSV give your CA clean numbers by vendor GSTIN and month. Filing stays with your CA on the GST portal.
