Downloading reports

Download reports and use them to perform tasks related to your finances.

Automate the process of downloading and parsing report data using a combination of our notifications service and HTTP GET requests.

Reports and time zones

Because time zones influence the start and end of your report, be aware of how we generate reports before you start downloading and using them:

We generate reports at approximately 04:00 CET.

If you find new reports by crawling (instead of automating report downloads), make sure the crawling time frame extends beyond 04:00 CET in case reports are generated later.
Each report uses only one time zone and one currency.

Charts and consolidated reports are always based on the CET time zone.

For other reports, the time zone setting of your account determines the beginning and end of the reporting period, and thus the transactions that are included. It is possible to have various different time zone settings for your company account and merchants accounts, but keep in mind that the report uses the time zone setting of the account where your run the report.

Report	Time zone
Account Updater results report	CET
Aggregate settlement report	Account time zone
Daily finance report	CET
Dispute report	Account time zone
External settlement detail report	Account time zone
MarketPay balance report	Account time zone
MarketPay payments accounting report	Account time zone
Monthly finance report	CET
Monthly invoice	CET
Payment accounting report	Account time zone
Received payment detail report	Account time zone
Settlement detail report	Account time zone

You'll find the time zone setting in your Customer Area under Account > Settings.

Change the time zone

Changing the time zone for your account only has an effect for future reports, and might lead to an initial gap or overlap in reports. For these reasons, proceed as follows when you want to change your time zone setting:

Generate, download, and save your report(s).
Contact our Support Team and ask them to change the time zone setting for your account.
Generate and download the report(s) again.
Merge each old report with the corresponding new report and remove any duplicates.

When you subscribe to a report, we automatically generate this report and make it available in your Customer Area. You will also receive a notification with eventCode: REPORT_AVAILABLE. The reason field contains the URL where you can download the report, and the pspReference field contains the name of the report.

To subscribe to a report:

Log in to your Customer Area.
Go to Finance and under Downloadable reports select the report that you want to subscribe to.
Select Subscribe or (if available) Schedule.
If prompted, specify how often you want you receive the report:
- Daily - The report is generated each day at 4 AM and contains the previous 24 hours of data.
- Weekly - The report is generated each week on the selected day and contains the previous 7 days of data. For example, if scheduled on Wednesday, the report will contain data for Wednesday - Tuesday.
- Monthly - The report is generated on the selected day of the month and contains data for the previous calendar month.
Select a report format (such as CSV or XML) and select Save.

Automate downloading reports

You can use downloaded reports for reconciliation by importing them into your accounting, ERP, or business intelligence systems. For more information, refer to Automate payment reconciliation. For additional security, you can also encrypt your reports with your PGP Key.

You can only download a report after it is generated.

To automate report downloads:

Set up report notifications to inform your server that a new report has been generated.
Make a HTTP GET request to download the report.

Step 1: Set up notifications

Set up notifications HTTP callbacks (webhooks) sent to an endpoint on your server. For general information on notifications, refer to Set up notifications. After you set up notifications, you will receive a REPORT_AVAILABLE notification when a new report has been generated. This notification contains the following fields:
- pspReference – the file name of the report.
- reason – the URL used to download the report.

Step 2: Download the report

Use TLS1.2 or greater when making GET requests.

Download the report with an HTTP GET request.
Include the URL of the report file name and your Report User credentials:

Merchant Account Reports:

$ wget --http-user='[YourReportUser]@Company.[YourCompanyAccount]' --http-password='[YourReportUserPassword]' --quiet --no-check-certificate https://ca-test.adyen.com/reports/download/MerchantAccount/[YourMerchantAccount]/[ReportFileName]

Company Account Reports:

$ wget --http-user='[YourReportUser]@Company.[YourCompanyAccount]' --http-password='[YourReportUserPassword]' --quiet --no-check-certificate https://ca-test.adyen.com/reports/download/Company/[YourCompanyAccount]/[ReportFileName]

Determine reports to download by parsing file names

You may not want to download every report that is generated. Parse the file name of the report to determine this. The following file naming conventions are used for our commonly downloaded reports:

Report type	File name format
Settlement detail report	settlement_detail_report_batch_[Batch Number].csv Parameters: [Batch Number] – sequential number of the settlement batch
Aggregate settlement report	settlement_report_aggregate_[yourAccountname]_[countrycode]_[additionalData]_[fromdate]_[untildate].csv Parameters: [yourMerchantAccount] – Adyen company or merchant account name [countryCode] – First country code in case the report is limited to one or more merchant countries [additionalData] – Indicates whether aggregation by Store, Terminal, or both is enabled. Possible values: empty, "S", "T", or "ST". [fromdate] – The start date of report. Format: `yyyy-mm-dd` [untildate] – The end date of report. Format: `yyyy-mm-dd`
Payment accounting report	payments_accounting_report_[date].csv Parameters: [date] – the date for which the report is generated. Format: `yyyy_mm_dd`
Account Updater results report	account_updater_results__[additionalData]_[dateformat]_[fromdate]-[untildate].csv Parameters: [additionalData] - Indicates whether aggregation by Merchant, Acquirer, or Card scheme, or a combination of them, is enabled. Possible values: empty, M=Merchant, A=Acquirer, P=Card scheme. [dateformat] - Indicates the format of the selected date. M=month, W=Week number, D=Calendar day. [fromdate] – Start date of the report. Format: `yyyy-mm-dd` [untildate] – End date of the report. Format: `yyyy-mm-dd`
Dispute report	dispute_report_[date].csv Parameters: [date] – the date for which the report is generated. Format: `yyyy_mm_dd`

Encrypt report files (optional)

For additional security, you can optionally encrypt your report files with a PGP Key:

Log in to your Customer Area with your company-level account.
Navigate to Account > Settings > Company Settings, and click Manage PGP Keys.
Under Upload a new PGP Key:
1. Next to Purpose, check the Reports checkbox.
2. Next to PGP Key, paste your public key.
Click Upload Key.

All future generated reports will be encrypted with this PGP key.

Manually download a report

We recommend automating report downloads. For more information, see Automate downloading reports.

To download reports from your Customer Area, you need to have the Merchant Report role assigned to your user account. For more information on how to set this up, refer to User roles.

To download a report:

Log in to your Customer Area with your merchant-level account.
Go to Finance > Downloadable reports.
Select the report you want to download.
On the report page, enter a time-period for the generated report.

For the settlement detail report, enter a settlement batch number instead.
Click Generate.
After the report has generated, under Earlier generated reports, click the file name. The report will download.

Reports can take some time to process and generate.
