Etsy Fees

Yes, you can definitely do that if you want to record the fee as a separate entry, Harty. However, I recommend adding it to the bank deposit so it matches the amount of the downloaded transaction from Etsy. Let's work together to log the Etsy fees on QuickBooks.

If you haven't done this yet, record the payment that you've received from Etsy into the Undeposited Funds account. I'll show you how:

1. Go to Sales and select Invoices.
2. Locate and click on the specific invoice.
3. Select View/Edit.
4. Click Receive Payment.
5. On the Outstanding Transaction, put a checkmark on the invoice.
6. Click on the dropdown arrow in the Deposit to option, then locate and select the Undeposited Funds.
7. Click Save and close.
   
   

After that, deposit the payment to the appropriate account and include the fee as a second line item by following these steps:

1. Click + New.
2. Select Bank deposit.
3. Under the Account dropdown, choose the bank account where the payment was received and ensure the date matches the invoice date.
4. From the Select the payments included in this deposit section, tick the box of the specific invoice to include it on the deposit.
5. From the Received From dropdown, choose the customer from whom the payment was received.
6. From the Account dropdown, select the category you use for tracking fees.
7. Enter the amount as a negative figure (for example, -£2.98).
8. Select Save and close.
   
   

Lastly, match this deposit to the downloaded Etsy payment.

Finally, reconcile your accounts by comparing the transactions from your bank statements to ensure accurate financial records.
