Porady i skróty Wave Pro
After three years in Wave, these are the tips I actually use.
Skróty klawiaturowe
| Działanie | Skrót |
|---|---|
| Save the open invoice | Ctrl / Cmd + S |
| Add a new invoice line | Tab from the last field |
| Wyszukaj transakcje | Ctrl / Cmd + F |
| Print or save a report as PDF | Ctrl / Cmd + P |
Ukryte funkcje, których większość ludzi nie dostrzega
- Partial refunds: Send either a full or partial refund on any customer payment, straight from the payment record.
- Google Sheets add-on: Import and export customers, products, and invoices in bulk instead of one at a time.
- Estimates that convert: Create a project estimate, then turn it into an invoice once the client approves it.
- Collaborator access: Share view-only or edit access with your accountant without handing over your password.
These small features are where Wave quietly beats pricier accounting solutions.

Typowe błędy, których należy unikać
Mistake #1: Mixing personal and business money
❌ Źle: Running groceries and client payments through one bank account.
✅ Po prawej: Keep personal and business finances separate from day one for clean project tracking.
Mistake #2: Typing in transactions the bank already sent
❌ Źle: Manually entering expenses that also arrive through your bank feed.
✅ Po prawej: Pick one source. Duplicate entries are the most common Wave error I see.
Mistake #3: Invoicing without online payments turned on
❌ Źle: Emailing a PDF and waiting weeks for checks to clear.
✅ Po prawej: Enable card, bank transfer, and Apple Pay so clients can pay in one click.
Rozwiązywanie problemów z falami
Problem: Bank feed stopped importing transactions
Przyczyna: Your bank changed its login rules or the connection expired.
Naprawić: Go to Banking, reconnect the account, then import the missing period manually.
Problem: Reconciliation will not balance
Przyczyna: A duplicate transaction or a payment recorded on the wrong date.
Naprawić: Sort by amount, delete the duplicate, and check dates near the month boundary.
Problem: A client says the invoice link does not work
Przyczyna: The email landed in spam, or the invoice is still a draft.
Naprawić: Confirm the invoice status is sent, then share the payment link directly.
📌 Notatka: If none of these fix your issues, contact Wave support.
