Grubhub Journal Entries

Bookkeep enables you to integrate your Grubhub account to automate journal entry postings.

The two journal entry postings we automate with Grubhub are:

  1. Sales Summary
  2. Deposit

Sales Summary​

The Sales Summary journal entry posts to your accounting platform on a daily basis, capturing the sales from the prior day. It includes gross sales down to net sales, encompassing refunds, sales tax, tips, and various fees and commissions from Grubhub.

note

We capture Sales Tax Collected and Withheld. For some accounts, Grubhub withholds and pays the tax, so we recommend mapping these lines to the same accounts since they should net to zero. For most Grubhub accounts, the seller must pay the tax.

Deposit​

The Deposit journal entry captures new deposits to your bank account related to Grubhub sales, as well as any adjustments made to your balance.

note

Grubhub usually makes weekly payouts for the average accounts (on Wednesdays or end of month).

Any sales processed by Grubhub and captured in the Sales Summary will increase your Grubhub balance. This balance decreases when there is a deposit to your bank account, which is captured in this journal entry.
