  • Can someone please provide the proper process to add PayPay Payment and fees transferred from Bank to a Wave invoice? I am still learning how to book keep. Sales are my thing, not accounting! If I do something wrong, I won't know how to dig myself out of the hole! It would be so much easier if Wave accepted PayPal, then I wouldn't have to bill sep…

  • When renting property, we charge a rental deposit which is held until the tenant leaves which could be 6 months of 3 years later. I assume this should be handled as a long-term liability since the deposit will (possibly) be held beyond the current tax year. * Please can someone show me (with screenshots ideally please) how to record this * In th…

  • Similar to multiple categorization, is there a way to bulk move transactions for example a wireless payment to business without having to select each and every single item to move it? It is painstakingly long to select each item then move to business.

  • I would like some clarification as to how Receipts are used. A Scout parent purchased some items and I would like to see that he gets reimbursed for this. I have the receipt, but the only thing I can think of doing is creating a vendor bill with that Parent's name. Please let me know the best way to handle this.

  • I have a chase business card with 4 individual employees accounts. Wave uploads the same random transactions 2-3 times for each of the users. I saw there was an issue with duplicating transactions that was marked resolved in January. Well, it's February 17th and it's still there.

  • Why do all transactions automatically get added to your business? Most other accounting software doesn't add them until you review/verify. This is pretty unfortunate when your bank accounts aren't 100% dedicated to the business, or when you need a bit of time to run a transaction by your accountant. It's hard to get a snapshot of your business if…
