Correct books. Plus the profit and the warning neither tool gives you.
A2X posts clean journals but tells you nothing about your money. ConnectBooks shows SKU profit but the accounting is soft. Sticky Books does both, and adds the layer no one has: it tells you the moment Amazon starts charging you more.

Screen 1
The settlements queue
A2X buries exceptions in a report you have to go read. Sticky leads with them, and with the one number an owner actually wants.

KeepThe queue is the product. Two adds: a confidence marker on the clean ones so the silence reads as trust, and age as a risk color, not just a number.
Screen 2
The summary journal, resolvable in place
This is A2X's core screen, the settlement split by category. A2X shows it. Sticky shows it, flags the one line that does not fit, and lets you fix it without leaving.
AWD Inbound Convenience Feenew charge, no account yet
$412.90
Learned across StickyMap to 501 COG, Shipping + Supplies. 38 other sellers mapped this exact fee there. Also clears 3 prior blocked periods.
The gapA2X would have posted this settlement with the fee dumped in a suspense account, or blocked the whole month silently. Sticky isolates the one broken line, suggests the fix from what every other seller did, and backfills the past. That is the difference between a poster and a partner.
The layer no one has
Fee Inflation Radar
Sticky already parses every fee on every settlement. So it can see Amazon's take rising in real time and price the damage. Neither A2X nor ConnectBooks does this.

Why it winsAn owner will pay for this alone. It reframes Sticky from "a tool that files my books" to "the thing that watches Amazon so I do not get quietly bled." The data is already in the settlement parse. This is pure leverage.
Your point, drawn out
Roll up the books by any lens
A2X groups only by GL account. ConnectBooks groups only by SKU. You said it: the real unit is whatever the operator thinks in. Pick the dimension, the books re-pivot.
MassiveDimensional pivotbeats both
Why it winsEvery journal line already carries brand, SKU, fee type, and account tags. So this pivot is free from data we already hold, and it is the one screen that makes both A2X and ConnectBooks look one-dimensional. Owner thinks in brands, buyer thinks in vendors, accountant thinks in accounts. One screen, all of them.
The trust artifact
Provable close
A2X matches one deposit to one journal. Sticky proves the whole month: every Amazon dollar traced from the bank to the books, signed, exportable.

Why it compoundsTurns a chore into an asset. A history of signed, provable closes is what you hand a CPA at tax time or a lender at diligence. It is also the stickiest reason not to churn back to A2X.

Matched to the penny. Posted does not just mean booked, it means the cash actually landed.
Why"Posted to QBO" and "I got paid what I was owed" are two different truths. Matching each payout to the real deposit closes that gap and flags the settlement where Amazon paid short.
