Payments Report Explained

The Payments Report contains all data relating to Sale payment transactions for a specified time period


This report can be accessed by choosing Reports > Payments


Please note: The Payments report is primarily used to reconcile payment terminals and bank / PayPal accounts. It reports Payment transactions at the exact time that they were taken and, for this reason, can differ from the Sales report (which reports Payments at the date / time of the Sale).


The Payments Report can be filtered by a pre-set or custom time period, as well as by employee:
