How People Use This

Afterpay settlement files mix gross amounts, merchant fees, and fee taxes in ways that break our accounting imports. The validator caught rows where the net settlement did not equal gross minus fees — turned out three refund lines had blank order IDs. Fixed them before they hit Xero.

We reconcile Afterpay settlements weekly. Before using this tool we had two months of unmatched transactions because date formats shifted mid-file. Now we run a pre-flight check on every export and catch formatting issues before they snowball.

James H.

I export Afterpay settlements monthly for my accountant. Last quarter the validator flagged 5 rows with missing fee amounts that would have understated my merchant costs. Catching those errors before importing saved us a painful correction later.
