Improved subscription invoices notifications. It hasn’t always been easy to identify which Synder subscription invoice relates to which of your organizations (if you’re managing more than one business with our app, of course). But now it is. You’ll be receiving emails with detailed information about the client/business subscribed to the Synder services, so you will be able to manage their (and your!) bookkeeping way easier now.

Smart Rules improvements, interface changes & better COGS functionality for Daily Summary

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.

Daily Summaries: proper split of Stripe financing paydown amounts. Synder users who prefer to sync transactions in daily batches will be able to map Stripe financing paydown amounts to correct accounts. 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.

January 31, 2023

TAGS FOR SHOPIFY AND WITHHELD TAX FOR WALMART

Shopify tags are now synced to QuickBooks.

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.
Walmart tax withheld. Now Synder can properly record tax that is collected by Walmart on your behalf. Such tax data will be synced into the sales part of your transaction as usual to increase your tax liability and then immediately decrease liability by the tax amount paid by Walmart.
‍Various improvements for Daily Summary. The Synder team constantly receives feedback from users on what can be improved, including our Daily Summary functionality. 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.
Case resolved: the missing fee for BigCommerce-Stripe integration. One of our users reported they couldn’t see a Handling fee from BigCommerce orders paid via Stripe. Now Synder includes the base handling cost in the shipping amount.

Shopify to Xero synchronization improvements. Now tax, shipping and discount on shipping details will get through from Shopify to Xero correctly, and the correct tax and shipping details will be displayed in the accounting.

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!

Specific use case with tax recording for non-US QuickBooks Desktop is resolved! One of our users encountered an issue with failed transactions because of how rounding worked with QuickBooks Desktop. A new flow was implemented to make sure that they have the correct amount recorded in QuickBooks. Now Synder records tax with an adjustment “Tax correct item” line to ensure that transactions are no longer failing and the correct tax amount is shown in the transaction.
Fixed issue Failed Application fee refunds from Stripe for Xero users. One of our users had an issue with failing Stripe application fee refund transactions (very rare ones).

Speed up the initial import for Daily Summaries. Now, Synder imports one day of the historical data when you create a new organization to make sure that you can check the result of sync right away without waiting for too long.
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!
