Amazon to Wave: one summarized entry for each deposit
Amazon pays you in batches. Each deposit mixes sales, fees, refunds, and taxes, so it rarely matches your Wave books on its own. An Amazon settlement report can hold more than 100 transaction types. Taxomate groups them into categories such as sales, fees, refunds, and taxes. Taxomate imports the Amazon settlement deposit and posts one summarized entry to Wave that matches the bank deposit. You skip the spreadsheet.
Before and after
96 Amazon transactions become one Wave entry.
Every order adds its own sale, fee and shipping lines to the Amazon settlement. Taxomate adds them up by category, so Wave gets one entry with the same total as the bank deposit.

Setup
How to connect Amazon to Wave
- 01
Connect Amazon
Connect your Amazon seller account. You sign in to Seller Central and approve access. Taxomate then starts importing your settlement reports.
- 02
Connect Wave
Connect Wave. You approve access in Wave and select the business to use. Wave requires an active Wave Pro plan or Wave Advisors package for third-party API connections such as Taxomate.
- 03
Set your account mappings
Run Quick Setup to create default accounts and sales items in Wave, or pick ones you already have. Then check the account for each category. You can change any mapping later. Taxomate does not post until the required mappings are set.
- 04
Review an Amazon settlement
Open an Amazon settlement in Taxomate. It shows the sales, fees, refunds, and tax totals grouped by category, and the settlement total that lands in your bank. You can group the lines by transaction type, SKU, or order.
- 05
Post to Wave
Post the settlement. Taxomate creates a summarized invoice in Wave as a draft, then approves it. A negative amount is marked as sent. Wave limits an invoice to 300 line items, so a large settlement can post as more than one invoice. If posting fails, Taxomate deletes the invoices it created. You can also turn on auto-post.
- 06
Reconcile with your bank deposit
Compare the posted invoice to the bank deposit. Taxomate does not create the bank deposit in Wave.
Posting
What Taxomate posts to Wave
Taxomate groups each settlement by category and posts the totals to the Wave accounts you map. The list shows the categories.
Each category posts to the Wave account you map:
- Sales (product price)
- Shipping income
- Refunds
- Commissions and selling fees
- Fulfillment and warehousing fees (FBA)
- Advertising
- Tax collected
- Tax remitted by Amazon (marketplace facilitator tax)
- Reimbursements for lost or damaged inventory
- Reserved balance
- Payable to Amazon
Good to know
- Taxomate posts to Wave as invoices. It does not create journal entries or bank deposits in Wave.
- Each line on the invoice uses a Wave sales item, so each category needs a mapped account and sales item.
- Every mapping is yours to change.
Questions before you connect Amazon to Wave
Short answers on how a payout-based workflow handles Amazon deposits in Wave.
How do I connect Amazon to Wave without rebuilding payout spreadsheets?
Start with the Amazon settlement deposit, import the related sales, fees, refunds, taxes, and adjustments, then review the summarized Wave entry before posting.
Can an Amazon Wave integration help reconcile deposits in Wave?
Yes, if the workflow uses the payout as the control total and posts a summarized entry that can be matched against the bank deposit in Wave.
What should I test first in an Amazon to Wave trial?
Use one recent Amazon settlement deposit as the activation test. The workflow is ready to scale when the first import, first successful post, and bank reconciliation all line up.
Before you import history
Prove the Amazon to Wave workflow with one real payout
Before you commit to any Amazon Wave integration, use one representative Amazon settlement deposit to confirm the import, accounting post, and bank reconciliation path.
- 1 Import one recent Amazon settlement deposit instead of starting with months of history.
- 2 Review sales, fees, refunds, taxes, and deposit matching before posting to Wave.
- 3 Confirm the first successful post in Wave reconciles to the bank deposit.
Reconciliation playbook
Amazon Wave payout reconciliation playbook
A useful Amazon to Wave integration has to do more than move orders. It should turn payout activity into accounting entries that explain the bank deposit without manual cleanup.
- Start from the payout
- Import the Amazon settlement deposit that actually lands in the bank, then summarize the related sales, fees, refunds, tax, and adjustments around that deposit.
- Post cleanly to Wave
- Review the proposed Wave entry before posting so the sales, fees, refunds, tax, and clearing accounts match the way you close the books.
- Prove it before backfilling
- Use one recent payout as the activation test. The workflow is working when the first successful post matches the payout and reconciles to the bank feed.
Activation checklist
- The Amazon settlement deposit imports successfully.
- The Wave posting summary separates sales, fees, refunds, and tax.
- The posted total reconciles to the bank deposit before historical imports begin.
What the Amazon Wave integration replaces
Without an integration, every Amazon payout means copying a report into Wave line by line and checking that the total matches the bank deposit. Taxomate does that step for you, the same way each time.
- Less manual entry
- Taxomate turns each Amazon payout into one summarized entry in Wave, so you match one entry to each deposit instead of copying payout reports by hand.
- See where the money went
- Sales, fees, refunds, shipping and tax post to the accounts you map, so your profit and loss report shows each one. Taxomate can also send summarized cost of goods sold (COGS) entries.
- One summary per payout
- Each summary breaks the payout down into sales, refunds and fees, and its total equals the deposit. You can review it before it posts.
