For executors who are paying some estate bills with their own money.
What you get
Template funnel
The hard part is not counting the bills. The hard part is showing which bills were really for the estate.
A separate tracker keeps payback records easy to see instead of hiding them in a big list.
Keep the amount, date, type, who paid, whether it was paid back, and a short reason.
Should executor reimbursements be separate from normal expenses?
Yes. These items need extra details like who paid first and when the payback happened.
Do I need the receipt for every reimbursement?
Usually yes. Missing receipts are what make simple paybacks turn into arguments later.
