Amazon Settlement Report

How do I sync my Amazon Settlement Report to QuickBooks?

Connex will create a single Summary Sales Receipt or Summary Invoice in QuickBooks from your Amazon Settlement Report. 

What are the advantages and disadvantages?

There are many advantages:

  1. You sync one order per settlement report, instead of several hundred individual customer invoices or sales receipts.
  2. Connex adds the Amazon fees.
  3. It's easier to reconcile and it makes QuickBooks cleaner.

Here are the disadvantages:

  1. You cannot track sales by customer, since you only have a single order in QuickBooks.
  2. The sync runs bi-monthly, so you can't see your sales reporting until the next settlement report.

How does your software locate reports?

Our software uses the end date of the report period. The end date is usually one - two days before the deposit.

Amazon only allows reports available in the last ninety days, using a date sync. If you require older sales, upload the reports manually.  You can upload reports manually one at time through Connex.
