Description

On many blockchains, such as Ethereum, there can be transactions that solely consist of a fee, rather than the actual receipt or send of any crypto asset. These type of transactions can be slight failed transactions that still reduce GAS in the form of ETH, or key registrations that require small amounts of ETH to complete. In order to record a fee only crypto transaction in SoftLedger, a user can create a withdrawal type transaction with sQty set to zero, while entering in the fee amounts in the fCoin and fQty section. 

How does this work?

In SoftLedger, all transactions distill down to four types of transactions; Deposit, Withdrawal, Transfer, and Trade. 

To achieve a fee only type transaction, you are able to set a Withdrawal's Send Quantity items to zero and just capture your Fee activity portions (fCoin, fQty, fPrice, and fWallet).

• Type - Withdrawal
• Sent Values- Input data 
  • sWallet = fWallet
  • sQty - Can be set to zero to achieve a fee only transaction
• All other field details can be found in the Crypto Withdrawals article. 

NOTE: To match to how ETH blockchain handles fee only transactions, Send coin needs to be selected, but you have the opportunity to input the sQty as zero.
