Interactive payment accounting report

You can manually generate the Interactive payment accounting report. For this report, you can select the date range, the time zone, and the columns you want to include. Every time you manually generate the Interactive payment accounting report, any previously generated report is overwritten.

You can generate the Interactive payment accounting report using the time zone setting of your account, or Central European Time. If you want to use the report to reconcile your payment processing invoice, select the first day of the month until the first day of the next month, select 00:00:00 for both days, and select Central European Time. This because your invoice is always based on the CET time zone.

Because it is interactive, this report contains different columns than the Payment accounting report. Download a sample Interactive payment accounting report for an example.

We have migrated to a new technology platform to make report generation faster. You may have to update your data ingestion pipeline if you automatically ingest report data. To determine if you have to take action, check the migration overview.
