BANK FEES DEDUCTED FROM SALES RECEIPT

Question asked by Julia Banks 9 years ago

£2493 has been received from a client which settles a £2500 sales invoice less a £7 bank charge. What is the simplest way to account for the bank fee?

In Xero you can allocate the full £2500 and within the same screen account for the bank charge.

In Sage you have to receive £2500 then enter a separate payment for £7. If the same approach is required in ClearBooks presumably I will have to delete the receipt from my imported statement (which is £7 short) and manually enter the full receipt and payment? Or just add a separate receipt for £7 plus a payment for the fee?

I'm new to ClearBooks so if there's an easy way to do this (as in Xero) I'd love to learn it sooner rather than later!

Many thanks.

Hi Julia,

The video link at the bottom should explain how to process this, although you will need to first make sure bank charges is set to show in sales on the Settings>Codes menu (update at the bottom):
