how to attach sales receipts to income transactions from online sales

Hi 

 

I have a online website with one.com and I use stripe to collect payments 

 

can anyone please explain how i will attach a record to the income transactions?

 

I have a business account set up which in linked to quickbooks, so understand when stripe deposit into my business account that will show as a transaction on the app which i can then categorise as income. How would i add the sales receipts for this though, for example if received two sales (one for £2 and one for £5), i would have two sales receipts but my understanding is that stripe will deposit the two sales amounts together (£7 minus fees). how would i add both receipts to this transaction in quickbooks? and also the receipts will have the wrong figure as it wont have accounted for the fee that stripe take. 

 

im sure there is a simple answer to this i am so very new to it all, i have searched for awhile online but haven't been able to find a "simple" answer! i was hoping it would be as simple as forwarding an expense receipt but when i tried that it did not work.

Hello Thinkcraftythoughts!

 

Yes, I heard from other users that payments are combined in Stripes and are deducted with a fee. Therefore, you can simply record what you received in your business account or categorize the downloaded ones. If there is a separate transaction for the fee, then it's good. If not, you can manually add it.

 

On the other hand, I also like the idea of being able to attach multiple receipts, especially for online transactions. However, QuickBooks Self-Employed will only allow you to attach a single file. You can take a photo of the two receipts and attach the photo to the transaction instead.


 

Please don't hesitate to go back to this thread if you have other questions about your Stripe entries.
