View Transactions

The results for your report are displayed in descending order by Transaction ID and include the following information:

Click the Next and Prev links at the top or bottom of the table to navigate backward and forward through the pages of records. You can also use the View All option to see all transactions on a single page. This is recommended only if the summary of transactions contains 50 or fewer records.

To view transaction detail, click the Transaction ID for the transaction you want to view. The Transaction Detail page opens.  

Sort Transactions

By default, transactions are sorted in descending order by Transaction ID. Clicking on a column header will sort transactions in descending order based on the information provided in that column. For example, to sort transactions from most recent to oldest, click the Settlement Date column header once. Clicking again on the same column header will resort transactions in ascending order.

An arrow next to the column header indicates the current sort order for the transaction set. An up-arrow indicates that the sort is ascending (A-Z) and a down-arrow indicates that the sort is descending (Z-A).

Your report is downloaded as an .iif document suitable for importing to the Basic, Professional, and Premier editions of QuickBooks from 2002 to 2005. For versions not listed here, please import a test file to ensure compatibility before uploading .iif files generated by the payment gateway.

All download files are named “DownloadYYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.iif.” For example, a file that is downloaded on December 5, 2005 at 3:41:30 pm would be named Download20051205-154130.iif. Be sure to save all QuickBooks report downloads as .iif files only.

Note: Any invoices and payments contained in an imported report will not be automatically associated in QuickBooks. you need to manually match any such transactions.

Import Errors

To avoid unnecessary import errors, it is always a good idea to use the QuickBooks recommended default accounts for your QuickBooks download report settings.

If an error is encountered while importing the .iif file, QuickBooks displays an error message indicating the transaction where the error occurred.

To import the corrected and remaining transactions:

Step 1: If necessary, correct any error(s) in your QuickBooks configuration or on the QuickBooks Download Report Settings page (see the Import Troubleshooting table below).

Step 2: Re-run the same QuickBooks Download Report, OR, depending on the error experienced, you can simply correct the errored transactions in the original .iif import file.

Step 3: Delete the transactions that have already been successfully imported into QuickBooks from the new .iif download file. This will prevent duplicate transactions from being imported into QuickBooks.

Step 4: Import the modified .iif file into QuickBooks.

IMPORTANT: Please refer to your QuickBooks documentation for more detailed information about importing files.
