    Hi fairdinkumbookk,

     

     I see that you've been handling merchant fees by adding a negative line to the invoice, but this is affecting your GST reconciliation.

Hi Genreve,

I have a similar issue, it's a merchant fee that should be taken up as expense not discounted. I have been adding a line to the original invoice and entering a negative amount to merchant fee expense code - fixes that problem but causes issue with GST Reconciliations both Collected and Paid are out by those amounts
