If you want more detailed data about your client payment collections, you can export your collections to a CSV file for deeper reporting and analysis!

You may want to export your data if you:

  • Have a large volume of payments that you want to reconcile

  • Wish to view all your client surcharge amounts at once

  • Need to perform month end or year end reporting

How to export payment collections data

Exporting your payment collections will generate a CSV file based on the current filters applied in your view.

Simply apply any filter you wish and click Export when you are ready.

The CSV file will be automatically sent to your email.

Pro-tip: To export all results, ensure you select All in the quick filters.
