One of my credit card accounts, which was reconciled before the migration, was showing a problem with reconciliation way back in 2014. This is one of those cards where there are transactions on the closing date of the statement which are not included in the statement, as I described here: https://community.waveapps.com/discussion/7304/reconcilin…

I have reconnected all of my bank connections and they are seem to be working (knocks on wood) although Chase keeps needing to be reauthorized. However, I still have a problem with one of them. All of the others were perfectly happy to use the existing account they were being imported into before, but for unknown reasons my mortgage insisted on …

Can I still input transactions manually for Cash paid-paper receipts? (Without uploading them)

I have a California LLC for my day job (consulting). I am building a web-based membership site as well. I do not want to create another LLC because I don't want to pay the $800 minimum tax again, so I'm going to operate the online business as a DBA under the LLC. Within Wave, do I need to have open (and pay for) a separate bank account for the on…

Since the new design I am having troubles to split transactions as before. I am quite fine if Airbnb sends us one transaction and I just need to split it between the rental income and the fee. However if Airbnb sends 2-3 transactions together in one payment and I need to split it among 2-3 guests and their rental income and fees, I am lost as the …

I was trying to import CSV bank files. One file went great, with > 30 entries. The other one, with only 10 entries, only the latest 5 rows showed up . The earliest ones did not show up. Try changing the date format to YYYY-MM-DD as suggested in the forum with no improvement. Any suggestion welcome. Thank you Ben

I'm not an accountant I'm part of a not for profit which decide to use and since our books are so basic. I know it's an invoicing app, but occasionally we need to pay a bill for something. Can I do that and if so, where? It makes the banking link a bit pointless otherwise.

Hello, I collect sales tax in New York City and State on most services that I offer. When sales taxes are submitted each quarter, you get to keep a portion of what you collected as a "Vendor Collection Credit" -- something around 5%. I was wondering how to account for this in Wave so that I don't overpay sales tax the next quarter, sinc…

I have just found Wave and would like to use it, mostly for the ability to scan receipts or send photo of receipts in to be automatically input onto my account. (if i understand that correctly anyway, is that right?) I don't do any invoicing or payroll. I just want to use my wave account like a hand written checking account register showing the…

In QBO when checks were received for invoices, these check amounts would go into an account called undeposited funds then one deposit entry was made to the bank account instead of several small ones. How do I do this in Wave.

Good day people Does anybody know of a way to search a keyword throughout invoices or estimates? If it does not exist, will it be launched anytime soon? I think it will be a very helpful feature for us all if not available yet. Kind regards Vic

I have read a few posts on this topic and it seems like there is no option but wanted to be sure. To put it in terms of wave: When I create an invoice I add an item. I put in a value and a quantity. I need to track that quantity in wave. So for example I set 500 items, and the system tracks it for me. When it hits x% I get an alert. In term of g…

I'm often paid in cash, which I just spend and don't deposit. However, I still invoice and record the income so I can pay proper taxes on it. How do I record the payment? As Cash on Hand, Withdrawal, or ??

is it possible for wave to import simply accounting 2011 data? what is the way to do that?

Did you guys do that or know if this is possible? Got a small business with 6 months of record keeping here so I can give more statements from my bank to make up for the 6 months I wasn’t a customer as well to the bookkeeper at Wave but not sure how much they charge and if it’s worth it rather than paying $1K+ for an accountant near me in a Toront…

There are two sides to my business. I run a market and I also manufacture a drink. They run under the same ABN however have separate bank accounts. We want to be able to report on them separately . Sometimes one account will loan money to the other. Should I set up as two separate businesses? Any suggestions for how I can manage this?

If I sent an invoice using wave and my clients wants to pay the invoice with their debit or credit card, how much would it cost me for each transaction or amount or if there is any monthly fee. Can you please help me understand the fee?

So this may sound silly but...if I have my bank connected and it imports the transactions into Wave do I have to put in the utility bill under purchases (?), pay it (bank payment) and then when it is imported just mark reviewed?

For a reason I can't understand, in one of my business in Wave I can,t access the dashboard. It's still showing me a welcome screen. How do I get rid of that. I already started doing invoices, connected my bank accounts and enrolled in Payments processing... (Image)

I just started out today using Wave and I love it thus far. My business is a property I purchased and rent out, pretty basic. I am struggling with how to add my mortgage on the house into Wave properly. I have online access to my mortgage and I connected my online account with Wave, but I don't know how to properly categorize it, (It defaulted to…

Hi all, A new user here. I’ve been able to sent invoices successfully but wanted to know if it was possible to send out a contract (pdf or other) at the same time as sending either an invoice or, preferably, an estimate. Loving all the other features so far. Thanks Steve

Hi, Forgive me if this is a stupid question that has been asked a million times, but I've just signed up to Wave and I've been adding my receipts but I'm getting stuck on how to categorise some of them. In particular, because I've just started up as freelance videographer, I've been buying some new bits of equipment and it's not clear what categ…
