Frequently Asked Questions
How do I connect my Amazon Seller Central account?
To connect Amazon:
- Sign in to MerchantLedger
- Navigate to Connections
- Click Connect Amazon
- You'll be redirected to Amazon's OAuth consent screen
- Review permissions and authorize MerchantLedger
We use OAuth (Login with Amazon), which means you never share your Amazon password with us. You grant us permission to access specific data, and you can revoke this access at any time.
What if my settlement import fails?
If a settlement import fails, check the following:
- Verify Amazon Connection: Go to Connections and confirm your Amazon account shows as "Connected"
- Check Job Status: Navigate to Jobs to see if an error message is displayed
- Verify Date Range: Ensure you're importing a settlement period that has data available (typically within the last 2 years)
If the issue persists, contact support@merchantledgerapp.com with your settlement ID and error message.
How do I disconnect my Amazon account?
To fully disconnect MerchantLedger from your Amazon Seller account:
Step 1: Disconnect in MerchantLedger
- Sign in to MerchantLedger
- Go to Connections
- Click Disconnect next to your Amazon connection
Step 2: Revoke in Amazon Seller Central
- Log in to Amazon Seller Central
- Navigate to Apps & Services → Authorized apps
- Find MerchantLedger in the list
- Click Revoke or Remove access
We recommend completing both steps to ensure full disconnection. After disconnecting, we will no longer be able to access your Amazon data.
How do I request deletion of my data?
To request deletion of your MerchantLedger account and all associated data:
- Email privacy@merchantledgerapp.com from the email address associated with your account
- Include "Data Deletion Request" in the subject line
- Optionally, let us know why you're leaving (feedback is appreciated!)
We will:
- Confirm receipt within 3 business days
- Delete all your data within 30 days
- Send a confirmation email when deletion is complete
Note: Backup copies may persist for up to 90 days for disaster recovery purposes. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Which accounting systems do you support?
We currently support:
- Wave Financial: Post journal entries directly to your Wave accounting
- Xero: Sync settlements as journal entries
- QuickBooks Online: Post summarized entries to your QBO books
We also support exporting to CSV format if you use other accounting software or want to manually import data. More integrations are planned—let us know if you have a request at support@merchantledgerapp.com.
How accurate is the categorization?
We categorize transactions based on Amazon's settlement report structure and common accounting practices for Amazon sellers:
- High-confidence categories: Order sales, refunds, FBA fees, advertising fees are categorized automatically with high accuracy
- Custom mappings: You can review and customize category mappings in Account Mapping before posting
- Unknown fees: If we encounter unfamiliar fee types, we flag them for manual review
We recommend reviewing postings before finalizing in your accounting system. Accuracy depends on source data quality from Amazon.
Is my data secure?
Yes, security is a core part of our design:
- OAuth authentication: We never see your Amazon or accounting passwords
- Encrypted storage: Tokens and data encrypted at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.2+)
- Least privilege: Service accounts access only the data needed for their function
- Audit logging: All data access is logged for security monitoring
See our Security page for detailed information on our security practices.
