# Stripe Payouts

Stripe does a monthly payout, but this amount does not correspond logically to any subset of payments. Therefore, the following procedure is set up:

- In Stripe, for the pertinent month download the full report
- Select **Reports** from left menu (expand the …)
- Select **Balance Summary**
- Select pertinent dates
- Download **Balance change from activity**
- Manually split out donations from book sales and BPCs.
- In Quickbooks, split out the monthly payout in donations, books sales, and subventions (minus fees). The number under donations will be a bit off (since the payout doesn't correspond exactly to the income over the entire month).
- Put in the fees separately as a journal entry set on the first of the previous month:   
    DEBIT Stripe Fees  
    CREDIT Book Sales/Donations
