# Noon: transactions, months and the balance check

> Noon keeps a balance instead of sending settlements. Bookalyze brings in every row of Noon's transaction view, posts each country's month as one entry, matches each payment to your bank and checks your books agree with Noon.

## Bring Noon's rows in

**Where in Bookalyze:** Commerce → Settlements → Noon

With Noon's API connected, **Bring in from Noon** reads a year back, a month at a time, then re-reads the last three weeks for late fees and updates. Without the API, upload Noon's **transaction view** (seller portal → Finance → Transaction view, CSV); everything else works the same.

Rows are filed by currency: AED to Noon UAE, SAR to Noon KSA, EGP to Noon Egypt. Bringing the same rows in again refreshes them; nothing counts twice.

## How Noon's rows are grouped

| Noon's type | Goes to |
| --- | --- |
| Order | Sales, with referral, fulfilment and other fees split out |
| Order Update | Returns and order changes |
| Statement Fee | Advertising (when it says so), else Noon's fees |
| Balance Transfer | Moved to another Noon contract |
| Payment | Not earnings: the payout to your bank |

## Post each month

Once a month is over, **Post** makes one entry on its last day (reference like NOON-2026-09), each group to its account and what the month earned to the Noon balance. A month whose rows change later shows **Changed since posted**.

> **Caution:** Noon's fees include VAT. Today that VAT posts with the fees, as a cost, which is right if you're not VAT-registered. Splitting it out as recoverable input VAT isn't built yet.

## Payouts and the balance check

Each payment row finds the bank deposit of the same amount, a few days either side. **Match** moves it into the Noon balance, so it stops counting as income. The **balance check** compares the Noon balance in your books with what Noon's rows say it owes; when everything is posted and matched it says **Your books agree with Noon**.

What you should see:
- [ ] Each country's months with sales, fees, advertising and what they earned
