How to catch up bookkeeping when behind on Amazon reconciliation

Catching up bookkeeping when you're behind on Amazon reconciliation doesn't mean re-entering a year of settlements by hand — it means converting the historical settlement reports you already have into books that tie out from day one.

Why the backlog happens

Amazon settlement reports arrive every two weeks whether or not anyone has time to reconcile them. A few skipped periods becomes a few months, and a few months becomes a backlog large enough that opening the books feels riskier than leaving them alone — which only compounds the problem at tax time or before a loan application.

The backlog is a data problem, not a time problem

Every settlement Amazon ever issued is still available in Seller Central. Catching up isn't about recreating lost information — it's about processing settlements you already have access to, correctly, for however many periods have piled up.

What catching up actually requires

How FootingKit handles it

FootingKit's catch-up service reconciles 12 to 36 months of historical Amazon settlements at once, converting each period into a QuickBooks- or Xero-ready entry and verifying it against your real bank deposits. Every payout is verified to net exactly to its bank deposit, or the conversion is flagged and re-run — free. Catch-up pricing starts at $149 for a founding rate, with standard pricing at $299 for 12 months or $499 for 36.

FAQ: What if I'm also behind on other marketplaces?

If Amazon isn't your only unreconciled channel, the same catch-up process applies to Faire, Shopify, Walmart, and eBay settlement backlogs — each platform's history is reconciled on its own terms, then handed back as one consistent set of books.
