I am a long time user of the old EAA. I have tried implementing the new online version a couple of times within the last year but found it not ready for prime time. The most serious problem being the infrequency of transactions to download into QB which is where we drive our accounting and order fulfillment from. Timely transaction availability is not a nice tom have for us buit a requirement. Has the quality of the new EAA program and support improved? Is the Data being made available as...

I am a seller. Where can I find the details to indicate a particular transaction paid State Sales Tax? In the downloads from eBay (and Paypal) they do not include any indication the sale was or was not a taxable sale. This is making it difficult to easily determine how much tax to pay (and record) without going through each and every transaction. Please someone must have figured this out. Thanks, Chris

Good morning, I have a question and am seeking assistance, advice direction etc. etc. I sell for a lot of clients on a commission basis. Sometimes I start with an item in my store and leave it there for some time for visibility on high end items with “Best Offer. Then I may move it into a 30 day or auction. As you know there are items that take time to sell and/or don’t sell. What I have is an accounting conundrum. Once I moved one item to any form of sale the item number...

Hi, I just downloaded ebay accounting assistant and I followed the easy wizard setup. During my set up, I used all default options except one. Instead of "map each ebay customer to a single, generic customer" , I setted to "map each ebay customer to a unique customer in QB". Anyways, I followed directions to the tee. I "imported from ebay" then I 'export to quickbooks". All the exporting from accounting assistant into my quickbooks 2010 premier went perfectly smooth. buyer's user id, item...

I have Accounting Assistance setup and the only annoyance is when I select a quickbooks inventory item to map to the ebay order. Finding a item within 2500+ items is tough, especially since the dropdown scroll box in AA is awful. I heard that AA will remember the choice for next time but if you have listed same item 100 times then it doesn't help much. The question I ask though is, I noticed when using Turbo Lister I can add my own part number into an inventory field when listing new...

I am having issues with EAA syncing with Quickbooks Online. When I use the Desktop version I get to the last screen and it says "Unable to find a non-taxable sales code in your Quickbooks company file. Either add a non-taxable sales code to QuickBooks and click Import from QuickBooks or select 'No, I do not collect sales tax." I have tried selecting the "No, I do not collect sales tax" item in the setup but it still gives me the same error. When I use the Web Based version I get the...

I testing Accounting Assistant (web version) right now. Currently downloading a desktop version to see how it looks. I have settings configured to track inventory in quickbooks. All the items I sell on ebay are set as "Inventory Item" in quickbooks. When viewing "My Activity" in Accounting Assistant, it ask me to select a quickbooks item for the "Inventory" column for each sale. The only items that show up are a handfull of items I have set as "Inventory Assemblies" in quickbooks. Not...

I just downloaded QB Simple start and am now trying to do Step 4: Map eBay fields to your QuickBooks chart of accounts. I can't get any further. I am not able to save the settings. When I go to the activity in Accounting Assistant it says: "It appears your QuickBooks mappings are not correct. Please check on the My Settings page under Step 4 of the My Accounting Software section to fix". I tried every combination you can think of to correct it. What am I doing wrong? I tried logging in...

I am looking for a system which keeps track of my auctions' ebay/paypal fees, item cost and profit. Preferably, something that can automatically download input data from ebay so that I don't have to key in. Perfect if it is Free or small one-time fee. Does anyone know what might fit my need? Thanks

I'm trying to set up the desktop version of Accounting Assistant. When I try to import sales from ebay it always reports some number of ebay sales that fail to import. Repeating the import several times over several days hasn't helped. Does anyone know why some sales would import but not others? So far the only references I can find are to the import failing completely. Thanks, Ken

I am looking for some advice on accounting software and inventory software. I am starting from scratch so I wanted some input before I purchased anything. It appears that Quickbooks is the way to go for accounting with ebay and paypal. Does anyone have any other programs they would suggest? And why? What about inventory control programs? I see that Quickbooks has one that integrates with the program. I am not a giant warehouse but a bar code scanner seems like it would be the most time...

I realize that eBay encourages the use of Accounting Assistant, but I really don't need the additional expense of Quickbooks, or the additional time it takes to download and import, etc. Is there any software or app or database that will keep track of how many times I have listed an item and the total amount of fees I have paid in listing. Really, of all the information that is out there, this I cannot find, and I think it is the only important information that is truly needed. I mean, it is...
