Hi Paul,
Thanks for your post.
As I understand it, Amazon is charging a fee and then charging VAT at the standard rate of 20% in the UK. If that is the case then normally we'd recommend posting a purchase invoice to represent the fee / VAT owed, then a purchase payment against the invoice when it is paid. Post a supplier invoice you can separate values onto separate lines if that helps with reconciliation?

Amazon is an absolute nightmare! Problem is, they take the money out of your remittance. So you can either post their invoices as credit notes on the customer account, or post to an Amazon supplier account and then go through the Contra entries.
I do not know how anyone manages to keep an Amazon account under control. Disputing shortage claims and returns is a full time job!
