In Moss, credit card transactions and payments are exported to BMD NTCS via dedicated export formats. This article explains the booking methods available — from the standard booking logic using a single Moss account to a more advanced Accounts Payable (AP) approach.
1. Standard Booking Logic (Moss Clearing Account)
With the standard method, every transaction is booked to a defined Moss clearing account (counter‑account). Typical examples:
Bank account (e.g.,
2812
for the Moss Wallet), orCredit card account (e.g.,
2810
)
Typical Flow:
Every transaction in Moss reduces the balance of the selected Moss account in BMD.
When a bank account is used to top up the Moss balance, a transaction must be booked to increase the balance of the Moss account in BMD.
Example Bookings
Action | Account |
Transaction | Counter Account: 2812 (Moss) |
Bank top‑up | Bank ➔ 2812 (Moss) |
👉 The Moss account acts as a clearing account for transactions and reflects the current balance of Moss card payments.
2. Supplier Accounting Logic (Double Entry)
For businesses with higher transaction volumes and more detailed accounting needs, Moss can also be configured for Supplier accounting.
Here’s how it works:
Transactions aren’t booked directly to the Moss account.
Instead, transactions are booked against the supplier account of the vendor.
An offsetting entry is created from the creditor account to the pre‑defined Moss clearing account (
2812
), ensuring the Moss balance is still kept accurate.
Typical Bookings
Action | Account |
Transaction | Creditors (e.g., |
Offsetting Entry | 2812 (Moss) ➔ Creditors ( |
Bank top‑up | Bank ➔ |
