Logging website sales query

I have a website which generates invoices for sales. (Wix) People buy supplies, pay for it and then I post it to them so I don’t need to send people invoices.

Do I have to print off my sales at then end of each month and manually re create new quickbook invoices to account for them? This seems a terribly ardous task to have to complete each month? Am I missing something?

Thank you

Your sales need to be recorded as some sort of invoice in QuickFile but you don’t necessarily have to map each Wix sale individually, you could create one invoice per day or per week to a dummy client called “website sales” or similar, with the total sales for that period (including the net/vat breakdown if you’re VAT registered). There’s knowledge base articles on accounting for daily takings if you search this forum, which should explain the principle in more detail.

One thing I would say though is that if you are VAT registered then the MTD rules say you should be able to trace a digital chain from your original master records (Wix, in your case) right through to your VAT return, so you ought to bring the Wix sales into QuickFile via some sort of API or CSV upload rather than manually copying and pasting figures between browser tabs.
