Square's savings feature deducts from sales income, causing inaccurate income figures in QuickBooks Online, and sales tax is miscategorized as income instead of a liability.
Current accounting software and integrations don't automatically handle Square's savings feature as a non-income transfer, and sales tax mapping requires manual categorization to separate from income.
