How do I record a gateway payout?

You will have emptied the matching amount from gateway clearing into the bank.

Before you start

You need the write permission. Have the gateway's payout report: gross, fee, date.

Steps

1. On Bank Accounts press the settlement icon on the receiving account.
2. Enter gross amount, processor fee, date and a description.
3. Save.

What you will see

An entry debiting the bank (net) and fee expense and crediting clearing, shown as manual.

If something goes wrong

• Refused if gross exceeds the clearing balance or the fee exceeds gross.
• Partial settlements are allowed.
• Watch the clearing balance; growth means missing settlements.
