Search and filter transactions

The filtering feature allows you to limit data according to predefined time intervals such as “Today,” “24 hours,” and “7 days.” The time interval filter updates as you progress through the transaction pages.

In the “Transactions” menu, you can filter transactions based on several criteria, as shown below:

“Store” filter

To use this filter, select a store so that the other search filters become available. If you want to clear a store from the filter, click the “x” on the right side of the parameter.

“POS” filter

The “POS” filter allows you to filter up to ten different POS terminals. To clear a POS from the filter, click the “x” on the right side of the parameter.

“Date” filter

The “Date” filter allows you to filter transactions by period of time. Click the date button to open the calendar and select the start and end dates or one of the default periods of time such as “Today,” “24 hours,” or “7 days.” For a “time” search, define the start and end times and click the “Search” button. Note that the slider window is limited to 7 days. The search returns all transactions and loads 100 items per page.

Cancel a payment authorization

To cancel an authorization, click on the relevant transaction, open the menu, and select the “Cancellation” option. Then, on the screen that appears, press the “Perform cancellation” button to confirm the cancellation. If the operation is successful, a “Cancellation” operation will be generated.

Keep in mind that only an authorization that has not been paid can be cancelled. You must inquire about the associated transactions to verify if the authorization has been paid.

Collect the payment

To confirm a Purchase Authorization and collect the payment, you must click on the transaction, open the menu, and select the “Collect Payment” option. Keep in mind that only authorizations that have not been cancelled can be paid, so you should check the associated transactions to verify if the authorization has been reversed.

You can pay either the full or partial amount, but if you choose to pay a partial amount, the remaining balance will be automatically cancelled.

Refund the payment

With this option, you can issue a refund of the purchase amount to the client. Before doing so, you should check the associated transactions to confirm that the amount to be refunded hasn’t already been refunded.

To initiate a refund, click on the relevant transaction and select the “Return” option from the menu. Enter the amount to be refunded, either the total or a partial amount, and then click the “Refund” button to complete the process.
