How to understand a Grubhub restaurant financial statement

Grubhub and cateringField guide 32 of 52

Grubhub describes its restaurant financial statement as including marketplace orders, cancelled orders, prepaid orders, promotions, and order adjustments. Treat each section as a separate ledger before calculating what the restaurant kept. In particular, prepaid orders can include more than one channel type, while order adjustments can reflect refunds or upcharges after an order.

Reconcile the statement total to the payment and bank deposit, then test individual fee or contract questions separately. Preserve store, period, order, and payment references so later credits or corrections can be linked back to the original event.
