Reconciliation Questions Answered

Will this work with my Adyen report?

Yes, as long as you use the Settlement Details Report from Customer Area → Reports. This report includes all the fee breakdown columns we need.

What's the difference between gross and net settlement?

Gross settlement is the total transaction amount, while net settlement is what you actually receive after Adyen deducts fees, chargebacks, and refunds.

Can I automate Adyen fee recording?

Yes. Export Adyen's Settlement Details Report, upload it to our converter, and get QuickBooks journal entries with complete Interchange++ fee breakdowns. No subscription or API setup required.

How People Use This

Reconciling Adyen settlements against QuickBooks used to take our team 3 days every month. Chargebacks, multi-currency batches, reserve holds — all had to be manually cross-referenced. This tool flags the mismatches automatically and our close cycle dropped to 1 day.

Simone K.
Accounts Receivable Manager · enterprise retail

Adyen Interchange++ pricing means every single transaction has a different fee. We were spending hours in spreadsheets trying to reconcile batch settlements against QuickBooks deposits. Now the journal entries come out balanced with Commission, Markup, Scheme, and Interchange split correctly. We caught discrepancies in the first week that had been hiding for months.

David R.
E-commerce Finance Lead · $2M/month Adyen volume

Each merchant account settles on different schedules and in different currencies. Matching Adyen batch payouts to QuickBooks bank deposits was the worst part of month-end. This tool reconciled all three accounts in under an hour. The matched transactions line up exactly with our bank feed and the verified totals balance every time.

Louise P.
Senior Bookkeeper · 3 Adyen merchant accounts

Our Adyen settlement reports had hundreds of rows per batch and we could never figure out why the net deposit was off by small amounts. Turned out scheme fees and chargebacks were being lumped together. This tool separates every fee category so our QuickBooks reconciliation actually balances. We caught discrepancies worth $3,200 in the first month alone.

Why Adyen Reconciliation Is Challenging

Interchange++ Pricing Complexity

Adyen's Interchange++ pricing means every transaction has different fees based on card type, region, and scheme. Processing fees include Commission, Markup, Scheme Fees, and Interchange — each varying per transaction. Without proper tracking, you lose visibility into your actual payment processing costs.

How This Tool Helps

We convert Adyen Settlement Detail Reports into proper Journal Entries: - Gross amounts credited to Revenue - Processing fees (Commission + Markup) debited to Fees expense - Interchange (Scheme + Interchange) debited to Interchange expense - Net amount debited to Bank (matches deposit) Each batch settlement becomes a balanced journal entry for easy bank reconciliation.

Data Transformation

Each settlement batch creates multiple journal entry lines (debits and credits) that balance to zero

Input Adyen Settlement Batch

One row per settlement batch containing gross sales and fee breakdown

Key columns: Batch Number, Creation Date, Gross Credit, Net Credit
1:N — One input row creates multiple output rows
Output Journal Entry Lines 4-6 rows per input

Multiple balanced lines for proper double-entry accounting

DR Bank Deposit Net amount deposited to bank (what actually hits your account)
DR Processing Fees Adyen Commission + Markup tracked as expense
DR Interchange Fees Scheme Fees + Interchange tracked as expense
CR Sales Income Gross sales revenue before fees
All journal entries are balanced (total debits = total credits)

Common Journal Entry Import Errors

Issues you might encounter when importing Settlement Details Report data to Journal Entry - and how we solve them

Journal Entry Out of Balance

One or more journal entries don't balance — debits don't equal credits

Check for rounding errors in fee calculations or missing transactions in the batch. Each journal entry must have total debits = total credits.

Missing Batch Number

Settlement rows don't have a Batch Number, making it impossible to group transactions

Ensure you're using the Settlement Details Report (not Transaction Report). The tool will group by date if batch numbers are missing.

Fees Don't Match Net Amount

Gross - Total Fees ≠ Net, indicating data corruption or missing fee columns

Verify your export includes all fee columns: Commission, Markup, Scheme Fees, Interchange. Re-export from Adyen if columns are missing.

Multiple Fee Accounts Required

Split Interchange++ option is enabled but only one fee account is configured

When splitting fees, you need separate expense accounts for Processing Fees (Commission + Markup) and Interchange Fees (Scheme + Interchange). Configure both accounts in processing options.

Multiple Currencies in One Batch

A single batch contains transactions in different currencies, which breaks accounting rules

Process each currency separately. Filter your Adyen report by currency before converting, or split your export into separate files per currency.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your data never leaves your device. All files are processed entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript - no data is stored on our servers or sent anywhere.

No payment or signup required. You can upload your file, see a free preview of the conversion results, and verify everything looks correct before paying anything. If it doesn't work for your files, you haven't wasted any money. We only charge when you're satisfied and ready to download the final converted file.
You can, but free scripts and AI often miss edge cases that break real-world data: missing SKUs, currency formatting quirks, tax calculation errors, or date format mismatches. We have battle-tested validators specifically designed for accounting software imports that catch these issues before they corrupt your books. Plus, you get instant browser-based conversion without installing Python or managing dependencies.
