# Configure Stripe accounting and payouts

> Map Stripe payments and paid payouts to the correct accounting accounts, journal, or daybook.

Use a clearing account for money Stripe has collected but not yet paid to your bank. Use a different payout account for the destination of paid Stripe payouts.

## Required mappings

| Provider  | Customer payments                                    | Automatic payouts                           |
| --------- | ---------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| Dinero    | Stripe clearing account                              | Different payout account                    |
| e-conomic | Customer-payment journal and Stripe clearing account | Different payout account and payout journal |
| Billy     | Stripe clearing account                              | Different payout account and payout daybook |

Payout posting is optional and remains disabled until every required mapping is saved and you explicitly enable it.

## Configure the mappings

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Stripe accounting settings">
    Go to **Settings** > **Customer billing** > **Stripe Connect** and find **Accounting accounts for Stripe**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose the clearing account">
    Select the account that represents unsettled Stripe customer funds. This mapping is required for Stripe payments and refunds.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose the payout account">
    Select the destination account for paid payouts. It must differ from the clearing account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose the journal or daybook">
    Select the payout journal for e-conomic or payout daybook for Billy. Dinero does not require this extra mapping.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enable automatic payout posting">
    Turn on **Automatically post Stripe payouts** only after all required mappings are ready, then save.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What happens when Stripe pays out

For an eligible paid DKK payout, Sweeply records an equal transfer out of the Stripe clearing account and into the payout account, using the configured provider journal or daybook where required.

Only paid DKK payouts are posted. Failed payouts are not recorded as successful transfers.

## What Sweeply does not reconcile automatically

* Stripe fees
* Disputes and chargebacks
* Reserves
* Currency conversion or unsupported balance activity
* Other adjustments in the Stripe balance

Include these items in your ordinary Stripe-to-bank and general-ledger reconciliation.

<Warning>
  If Sweeply reports an uncertain payout-posting result, check the accounting provider before contacting Sweeply support. The entry may already exist.
