How to Use

Basic Usage

Navigate to your messy invoice folder:

cd ~/Desktop/receipts-to-sort

Then ask Claude Code:

Organize these invoices for taxes

Or more specifically:

Read all invoices in this folder, rename them to 
"YYYY-MM-DD Vendor - Invoice - Product.pdf" format, 
and organize them by vendor

Advanced Organization

Organize these invoices:
1. Extract date, vendor, and description from each file
2. Rename to standard format
3. Sort into folders by expense category (Software, Office, Travel, etc.)
4. Create a CSV spreadsheet with all invoice details for my accountant

Instructions

When a user requests invoice organization:

1. Scan the Folder

   Identify all invoice files:

   # Find all invoice-related files
   find . -type f \( -name "*.pdf" -o -name "*.jpg" -o -name "*.png" \) -print
   

   Report findings:

   • Total number of files
   • File types
   • Date range (if discernible from names)
   • Current organization (or lack thereof)

2. Extract Information from Each File

   For each invoice, extract:

   From PDF invoices:

   • Use text extraction to read invoice content
   • Look for common patterns:
     • "Invoice Date:", "Date:", "Issued:"
     • "Invoice #:", "Invoice Number:"
     • Company name (usually at top)
     • "Amount Due:", "Total:", "Amount:"
     • "Description:", "Service:", "Product:"

   From image receipts:

   • Read visible text from images
   • Identify vendor name (often at top)
   • Look for date (common formats)
   • Find total amount

   Fallback for unclear files:

   • Use filename clues
   • Check file creation/modification date
   • Flag for manual review if critical info missing

3. Determine Organization Strategy

   Ask user preference if not specified:

   I found [X] invoices from [date range].
   
   How would you like them organized?
   
   1. **By Vendor** (Adobe/, Amazon/, Stripe/, etc.)
   2. **By Category** (Software/, Office Supplies/, Travel/, etc.)
   3. **By Date** (2024/Q1/, 2024/Q2/, etc.)
   4. **By Tax Category** (Deductible/, Personal/, etc.)
   5. **Custom** (describe your structure)
   
   Or I can use a default structure: Year/Category/Vendor
   

4. Create Standardized Filename

   For each invoice, create a filename following this pattern:

   YYYY-MM-DD Vendor - Invoice - Description.ext
   

   Examples:

   • 2024-03-15 Adobe - Invoice - Creative Cloud.pdf
