Hi, I am trying to figure out how to properly record invoice payments. I've recorded that I've received a series of payments on different customer invoices, and then I have the deposit for the total amount that downloads from the bank statement. How do I clean this up so that I don't have a double deposit? I've seen old posts from 2018 about t…

Still disappointed in the new Receipt app replacement. An "enchancement" is not one that remove's AI process for manual processing and then and turns a simple 3 step process in 12 or more. More disappointingly: * It doesn't feel that WAVE took the time to proactively understand it's customers, their use of the receipt app and develop …

I find these gratuitous limitations irritating. Why would Wave block the ability to change account type for cash / bank? Suppose a bank account is restricted for some reason (say, guarantee on a bond) and I no longer want to show it as a liquid asset. I can't change this because Wave think it knows all the answers.

I am migrating all of my documents into Wave from old book keeping software. I have a huge collection of PDF and JPG images of my receipts. Is there a way to bulk upload these files on the receipt upload page?

Why only a portion of the income that is entered shows up on the P&L Report?
-
In this scenario, there are 3 companies: 1. Manufacturer 2. Agent 3. End user/final payer Manufacturer is not licenced to sell in the end user's geography, so bills End User through Agent (which holds appropriate licence to sell). Example: * End user invoiced $100 by agent * End User pays $100 to Agent, for which the Agent earns $30 commission * …
