Question

How can I reconcile Shopify sales, credit card payment receipts from Shopify, Shopify fees, and cash deposits?

I see that individual sales from my Shopify store are recorded in Quickbooks, and recorded to an "undeposited funds" account.  Then, I will get a deposit (less fees) for credit card transactions from Shopify, and also deposit cash received from Sales in my bank account.  How can I reconcile all of this, and account for the credit card processing/Shopify fees?

Hello sanathan-redcaph,

 

It's a pleasure to see you in Community.  Welcome!  QuickBooks Online provides the features you need, to reconcile your account with confidence.  Matching your transactions effortlessly is key.  I would be glad to help!

 

Bank fees can throw your transaction amounts out of balance, making it difficult to match them to your books.  QuickBooks enables you to manage the bank fees so your records match, and you can reconcile without discrepancies.   First you'll need to create an expense account for the fees, if you haven't done so already.  Here's how:

 

1. Open your Settings ⚙ and select Chart of accounts

2. Click New

3. Create an Expense account for bank charges and give it a name such as 'Bank fees'

4. Hit Save and close

 

Follow these steps to record the bank fees;

 

1. From the left menu, open +New, then select Receive payment

2. Checkmark the box next to the invoice you would like the payment to be applied to

3. Choose Undeposited funds from Deposit to ▼ dropdown

4. Hit Save and close 

5. Select + New, then Bank deposit. You should see the payment you entered in the Select the payments included in this deposit section at the top.

6. Place a checkmark to select the payment you want to deposit

7. In the Add funds to this deposit section, enter the amount of the bank service fee charged to you, as a negative amount

8. From the Account section, select the account you created for tracking bank fees

9. Verify that the deposit amount is correct

10. Select Save and close to record the transaction
