Manus to turn family receipts into tax workbooks

Keitaro_aigc used Manus to prepare Japanese tax paperwork from sixty three medical receipts and ten hometown tax donation certificates. They photographed the documents, packaged the images in ZIP files and asked for spreadsheets, dated PDFs and consistently renamed source images.

The choice of receipt images addressed a limitation in their own records: private dental treatment was not reflected in their usual portal, and collecting separate family permissions there was cumbersome. The image workflow combined the family's documents in one processing task.

Manus read dates, hospitals, amounts and patient names, but some names and years were wrong. The author corrected it with a closed set of four family names and an instruction that all receipts belonged to 2025. They also requested image rotation correction. Manus then searched the National Tax Agency website, downloaded the medical expense Excel template and generated Python to populate it.

The deliverables included a populated official workbook, a date ordered PDF and renamed images. The donation certificates received corresponding spreadsheet and PDF outputs. Manus also organized the files by fiscal year with a README for later GitHub storage. The author reported about fifteen minutes including corrections. This was document preparation; the article does not verify a submitted return, refund payment or error free extraction.
