Ability To Change Stripe Payment Transaction Dates
We have an issue with our Stripe integration with Xero. Stripe creates payment transactions in Xero and then when the payout comes in on the bank feed, it matches the payment transactions to the payout, which would be handy except that it's causing problems with reconciliation because if the payment transactions are created late in a calendar month (for example, 29th December) and the payout arrives in the bank account in the following month (for example, 3rd January) the bank statement closing balance doesn't match with the balance sheet closing balance.
The only way to currently fix this is to 'Remove & Redo' the payment transactions and then fix the dates and re-match. It's cumbersome. It would be a lot easier to simply have a function to adjust the dates to match the payout so the closing balances match. Alternatively, being able to disable Stripe from creating payment transactions and creating them manually would be preferable to the mucking around but apparently we can't disable this and still keep Stripe as a payment method.
