Debits and Credits Section

Financial information is displayed in an accounting format of debits and credits. Click the square plus icon to expand for more detail.  Click the square minus icon to collapse the detail.  Click the hyperlinks to drill through to more detail.

The Grand Total Debits should equal Grand Total Credits, except for sales tax rounding.  See Transactions that Do Not Balance section for further information if Grand Total Debits do not equal Grand Total Credits.

Pending Transactions Section

Pending transactions are often a cause of the Grand Total Debits not equaling the Grand Total Credits.  Even if the report is in balance, it is advised to resolve pending transactions.

Transactions that Do Not Balance Section

See a listing of the transactions where the debits (payments) do not match the sales (credits).  You may see several transactions that are off by a penny or two.  This is due to sales tax rounding and should be adjusted for in your journal entry for sales tax.  If there are transactions with larger differences, email support@aluvii.com with a screenshot of the header of the report that shows the parameters used to run the report.

Payment Breakdown

Sales broken out by payment type columns.  If a transaction is paid for with a single tender type (payment method), the sales on that transaction can be broken out by payment type.  If there are more than one tender type used to pay for a transaction, see the Split Payments section next.

Split Payments

A split payment is when a single shopping cart is paid for using more than one tender type (payment method).  Transactions with split payments are presented with the products purchased along with the payment methods and amounts, so that a human can allocate payment types to the products as desired.  This is not done programmatically, because scenarios and use-cases become complex with a) preferences on allocation methods (pro-rata or first payment type to first products added to the cart or last payment to first products added to the cart, etc.), b) partial refunds paid with a different allocation method than the original sale, c) etc.
