Available only for businesses in El Salvador: the settlement corresponds to the Documento Contable de Liquidación (settlement accounting document, DTE 09) issued by the payment processor.
Sales collected by card are not deposited in full: the processor deducts the commission, the VAT on the commission and the 2% VAT withholding on the commissionable amount. The settlement records that transaction and generates its accounting entry.

Accounting entry

Card sales were posted against the Card payments account; upon settlement it is cleared with the net deposit and the deductions: It is created in DRAFT. The accounts are configured in Accounting Settings: Card payments (Sales), Commission account and 2% VAT withheld (Card Settlements, El Salvador only) and VAT tax credit (Purchases). If any is missing, the system tells you which one before creating the entry.
