docs(quickbooks): Stripe → QBO accounting sync design - #185
Merged
Merged
Conversation
Designs the accounting model for posting Stripe payments into the production QBO company without double-counting money the existing Stripe/bank path already represents. - Recommends gross Sales Receipts into a Stripe clearing account (revenue leg only — never deposits, fees, invoices, or journals), contingent on a pre-flight inspection of what the existing Stripe→QBO path already creates. - Records production evidence: CW (Curaçao) company — non-US tax; mapping confirmed unset; no fees/payout linkage captured today; Dashboard refunds invisible to the app. - Documents RefundReceipt refund model, clearing reconciliation, conservative no-tax-posted launch posture, per-type idempotency, retry/failure semantics, and a manual verification checklist. Implementation issues filed as #178–#184. No QBO writes are built. Generated with [Devin](https://devin.ai) Co-Authored-By: Devin <158243242+devin-ai-integration[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>

Reviewer's GuideThis docs-only PR establishes the accounting-sync design and review gate for future QuickBooks writes: inspect the existing Stripe/bank integration first, then—if no revenue leg already exists—post gross payment Sales Receipts to a Stripe clearing account while leaving deposits and fees to the existing path.

- Around line 299-302: Update the Launch posture section to specify the required
GlobalTaxCalculation mode for the company’s approved no-tax treatment, using
NotApplicable only if it is valid for this company. Keep the existing TaxCodeRef
guidance and clarify that the Sales Receipt request must include this
transaction field.
- Line 232: Update the paid payment mapping for SalesReceipt to specify that QBO
TxnDate uses the payment’s paidAt settlement date, not the worker’s processing
date.
- Line 174: Update the amount mapping for Sales Receipts and refunds so the
integer USD cents in amountMinor are converted to decimal QBO currency units
before posting; preserve the gross-amount treatment and apply the conversion to
both transaction types.

…lculation - Convert amountMinor (integer cents) to QBO decimal units at the boundary, for Sales Receipts and RefundReceipts. - Post TxnDate from the payment's paidAt (refund's refundedAt), not the worker date — retries/backfills land in the right period. - Non-US companies require GlobalTaxCalculation on sales transactions; the intended NotApplicable value is confirmed by the pre-flight tax check.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick winRequire missing-record recovery before enabling writes.
When the planned producer commits a payment as
paidand its post-commitenqueueAccountingTransaction()call fails without creating a sync record, that payment remains outsideqboSyncRecords. Section 13 proposes a sweeper but leaves its trigger to the implementation issue. Rollout step 5 and the blocking pre-flight checklist do not require recovery to be implemented and tested. The post-enable QBO-outage check covers a sync record that already exists. Require tested recovery for paid payments with no sync record before enabling writes; otherwise, those payments can remain unsynced until a later sweep or manual recovery.Suggested fix
-5. Enable writes for **new** payments only; verify the first payout - reconciliation with the accountant. +5. Enable writes for **new** payments only after recovery for paid + payments without sync records is implemented and tested; verify the + first payout reconciliation with the accountant.🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

Summary
Adds
docs/architecture/quickbooks-accounting-sync.md— the accounting design for syncing DDB Stripe payments into QuickBooks Online without double-counting money the existing Stripe/bank path already represents. No bookkeeping writes are implemented; this document is the gate for that work.The design was informed by read-only inspection of production state (Firestore via admin reads, Vercel runtime logs) — no production writes or mutations of any kind.
Changes
docs/architecture/quickbooks-accounting-sync.mdcovering: current state (verified prod evidence: CW/Curaçao company, unset mapping, captured payment facts, missing fee/payout data), the existing Stripe→QBO unknown with a blocking pre-flight inspection checklist, double-counting risk matrix, options A–D, the recommended model (gross Sales Receipts → Stripe clearing account; app posts the revenue leg only — never deposits, fees, invoices, or journals), RefundReceipt refund model, clearing reconciliation, conservative no-tax-posted posture for the non-US company, mapping verdicts, per-type idempotency, failure/retry semantics, rollout plan, and a manual verification checklist.docs/operations/quickbooks.md— the "deliberately not built" section now links to the design doc.Follow-up implementation issues filed: #178 (pre-flight inspection gate — blocking), #179 (Sales Receipt posting), #180 (refund sync), #181 (clearing/payout reconciliation + fees), #182 (mapping UI), #183 (retry/sweeper/visibility), #184 (non-US tax decision).
