How Taxomate sends Amazon settlements that span two months

How Taxomate sends an Amazon settlement that spans two months, and how it works with VAT tracking.

An Amazon settlement can cover two months, for example 25 January to 7 February.

If you turn on Split settlements across months (Settings > Invoice > Currency and months), Taxomate creates one entry for each month in your accounting software. The first entry is dated the last day of the first month. The second entry matches the bank deposit.

Taxomate sends both months together

Taxomate sends a settlement as one unit. When you select Send, both months go together. The confirm dialog lists the periods. You cannot send one month now and the other later.

If VAT tracking is on

With VAT tracking on, a settlement shows Awaiting VAT until Taxomate has Amazon's VAT Transactions Report for every month the settlement covers. Amazon releases a month's report in the first days of the next month. Taxomate collects it about the 4th to the 7th.

Example: a settlement for 25 January to 7 February waits for the February report. Both entries, including the one dated 31 January, reach your books about 4 to 7 March.

If you file VAT returns

  • Plan for this timing. The first month of a settlement that crosses your period end can arrive close to a UK return deadline (the 7th).

  • Do not lock that period in your accounting software before the entry has posted. If the period is locked, the send fails for both months.

  • See "Awaiting VAT: What does it mean?" for what to do while a settlement waits.

If one month is wrong

You cannot correct one month alone. To fix it:

  1. Open the settlement.

  2. Select More actions, then Delete entries from your accounting software.

  3. Fix the cause (a mapping or a setting), then select Rebuild from Amazon report.

  4. Select Send to your accounting software again.

A settlement shows Partly sent ยท needs cleanup if one month was sent before 13 October 2026, or if a send stopped part-way. Send is hidden. Select Delete entries, check your accounting software, then send the whole settlement. Or select Contact support.
