Daily Summary: mapping by country/region. Now you can group summaries not only by product/SKU but also by county and/or region and map them to the needed accounts. This allows for easy tracking of how much you’ve sold in various locations and can also be useful for understanding what to expect in terms of tax return.
Daily Summary: mapping by classes. It’s been highly requested to break down daily summary batches by classes. It is now possible with Synder’s Daily Summary sync mode, so you will get even more detailed reporting.
Per transaction: sync discounts as products. Normally, discounts should be posted to a Discounts given account in your books, however, quite a number of users asked if we could allow them to sync discounts as products for more flexibility in terms of the Profit&Loss report. We heard you and made it possible!

Product mapping for QuickBooks Desktop and other improvements
Introducing a new feature for QuickBooks Desktop - Product Mapping! With this update, QuickBooks Desktop users can now easily set up product mapping within Synder, which enables them to establish a correspondence between products in their accounting system and their online shops. This feature enhances synchronization and makes the process even more flexible.
We are excited to announce the latest improvements to Synder Insights, also known as our Sales Analytics tool. We’ve fine-tuned the logic and interface to enhance its functionality, so that it performs even better and calculates data flawlessly.
Improvements to the tax recording system for Canadian businesses. Some users were reporting that tax codes weren’t being assigned correctly during synchronization, which could lead to the wrong tax code being applied to a transaction if multiple tax codes had the same tax amount. We’ve solved this issue so that sales in Canada will now always have the right tax codes applied to transactions.
Amazon connection issues have been fixed and other minor improvements introduced.

Settings moved. Our existing users will notice that the Settings look differently now. Clicking on the gear icon, one will find only the sync settings - a place to configure the synchronization flow for each connected platform. However, to manage connections, subscription details, users, etc., one needs to go to the My account tab in the top-right corner of the page.
Some texts on the interface changed as well. In order to make our Platform transactions page more user-friendly, we renamed the green Sync button: it is now called Actions as it contains the list of all actions one can perform with transactions on the page.
Smart rules: more flexibility. Our categorization rules will now allow users to automatically update the fields Service date and Description in the books. Moreover, you can now use placeholders when creating a rule: copy a placeholder in any free-form field and have it automatically replaced by real QuickBooks data.

The body of the loan taken from Stripe can now be mapped to a Loan Payable account (type Other Current Liability), and the interest paid - to an Interest paid account.
Daily Summaries: recording of payouts improved. The Synder team continues to perfect our Daily Summaries functionality. Now, if you receive several payouts in one day, Synder will create a separate entry line for each of the payouts for successful reconciliation of your Journal Entries.
Case resolved: zero amount products from PayPal. One of our users reported that Synder did not account for a line product in QuickBooks if the amount of the line with this product was 0 in the PayPal transaction. This was crucial for correct COGS accounting. We’ve fixed this issue, and now all records in our users’ books should contain all lines even if the line amount equals zero.
Several improvements for Smart Rules functionality. Some of the smart rules logic needed fixing and improving, so we’ve done that and stabilized the work of this functionality.

Even more good news: these details can be further used to build any categorization rule if needed, using the Private note field in the Synder Smart Rule builder.

We’ve now made it possible to map refunds to a separate account and introduced some improvements to the Suggested mapping and Historical import features that will save our users even more time.

Tip: for those who want to have data synced only once everything is ready - a special sync when fully fetched mode now available.
WooCommerce smart reconciliation with Afterpay. When WooCommerce orders are paid via Afterpay, Synder will create only one transaction with details from both platforms, with full information and without any duplicates!

Service fees for Amazon are now fetched from reports. We changed the way service fees are fetched from Amazon to make sure that no fees are missing, and you have accurate results in your books. This means that the fees will remain pending for up to 14 days (usually) until Amazon finalizes them. Only after they are finalized and their amounts remain unchanged will they get to your books.
Improvements for BigCommerce: The team has enabled smart reconciliation for Stripe and PayPal, and more integrations are on the way. Connect BigCommerce alongside your payment providers to get the complete data about each order without duplicates!
