Q1. Can I record transaction fees for supplier credit refunds on Jaz?
Yes, you can. When recording a refund for a supplier credit note, you will find an option to add transaction fees.
You can record transaction fees in absolute amounts or as a percentage of the cash received.
Q2. What can I use the transaction fee option on supplier credit refunds for?
The transaction fee option might be useful in some scenarios such as:
Your payment provider charges you a fee when you make a payment to your suppliers.
Q3. What happens when a transaction fee is recorded?
When you record a transaction fee for a supplier credit refund, the transaction fee charged is deducted from the amount under Cash Spent.
The Net Cash Spent reflects the actual refunded amount, excluding fees.
On the supplier credit note details, the refund amount shown in the customer credit note's total summary will reflect the Gross Cash Spent or the cash spent before fees.
Q4. How does recording GST/VAT work for transaction fees?
You can include GST/VAT on fees easily by selecting a profile.
The summary will reflect a breakdown of the fees charged, showing the actual fees charged and the GST/VAT on fees.
Q5. How are transaction fees reflected on the general ledger?
On the general ledger, you should see a record reflecting the transaction fees charged under the expense account (for e.g. Transaction Fees & Charges) that you have selected when recording a transaction fee.
If you have indicated GST/VAT included in the transaction fees, you should see an additional record for the included GST/VAT under the Input GST Receivable account.
