Quickbooks Point of Sale Financial Exchange Problem

Hello Everyone,

 

This is my first time posting on this page.  I am fairly new to Quickbooks and I have been having some problems with Financial Exchange between Quickbooks Point of Sale V19 and Quickbooks Pro Plus 2021.  When I perform a financial exchange, the taxable sales and tax amount do not always match the amounts that are transferred into Quickbooks.  They usually vary by a few pennies.  For example, today I had a transaction where I sold 5 items on a sales receipt in POS.  The subtotal was $121.50 and the 6% tax was $7.29 for a total of $128.79.  When I perform the Financial Exchange and view the sales receipt in Quickbooks, the subtotal is $121.49 and the 6% tax was $7.30 for a total of $128.79.  This is happening on almost every transaction where there a more than a couple items sold.  Has anyone else experienced this, and if so what is the resolution? 

 

I appreciate any help!

Quickbooks Point of Sale Financial Exchange Problem

Hello, ambitionsupplyllc. 

 

I have a couple of solutions you can do to resolve the penny differences for the sales tax. 

 

You'll want to ensure you have the latest QuickBooks Point of Sale and Pro Plus updates. Doin so helps prevent issues like sales tax calculation. You can check these articles for the steps on how to update both programs: 

 

 

The penny differences can also be caused by conflicting sales tax rates. You'll want to compare and edit the tax rates in QuickBooks Desktop and Point of Sale. Here's how:

 

In QuickBooks Desktop:

 

  1. Go to Lists, then select Item List.
  2. Find the Sales Tax Item and open it.
  3. Check and edit the rates. 
  4. Click OK

 

In Point of Sale:

 

  1. From File menu, select Setup Interview.
  2. Go to the Sales Tax tab.
  3. Edit and change the tax rate. 
  4. Click Done.

 

If you need help with the sales taxes, check these articles for a reference: 

 

 

After dealing with the sales tax penny differences, do you need help running reports for your sales? This article can help you understand how to pull up the best sales report: Understand reports.

 

I'm willing to help you with anything else in both Point of Sale and QuickBooks Desktop. Just say the word below and I'll help you out. If you need help with something else with the Financial Exchange process, I'm all ears and ready to assist.

Hello,

 

I tried both solutions and Quickbooks Desktop and POS are already running the latest version, and the sales tax rate is configured a 6% in both programs.

 

Thanks.

Quickbooks Point of Sale Financial Exchange Problem

Hello,

 

No, unfortunately we have not been able to figure it out.  Quickbooks still hasn't been any help.  At the end of every day we double check each and every sale and modify if necessary.  Usually about 10% of our daily sales are wrong and have to be manually fixed in Quickbooks.  Sorry, I wish I had better news.
