Synder can connect your Authorize.Net payment platform to your accounting company for automated bookkeeping. You will see the gross amount of sales in your accounting company after the synchronization, and the reconciliation will take several clicks.
Note: <\/strong>Authorize.Net has a monthly fee for its services, not per-transaction fees, which you will need to create manually in your bookkeeping system.
Note 2: <\/strong>Synder will automatically sync any sales transactions only AFTER <\/strong>the funds they compose were paid out from Authorize.Net to the bank (after the settlement went through). So several most recent transactions may not show up right away<\/strong>, but they automatically will eventually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Follow these steps to connect Authorize.Net to Synder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
