Bank Reconciliation Report
If you are having trouble balancing to the exact deposit amount, try using the Bank Reconciliation report. The Bank Reconciliation report is part of the Deposit Reporter. Use the Bank Reconciliation report to find the Deposit Request Reference number. The Deposit Request Reference number will help you identify all of the different parts that make up a single deposit.
When a deposit is made, it displays as one transaction in the Deposit Reporter, but a single deposit can be a total of multiple deposits. The Bank Reconciliation separates the deposit into its different parts. For example, when a $300 deposit displays in the Deposit Reporter, the Bank Reconciliation file will display 2 deposits: ACH $200.00 and CC $100.00. In the following example, notice that the Deposit Request Reference and Deposit Reference are the same; however, the Deposit Distribution Reference is unique.
Payments Reporter Column Descriptions
The following columns are available on the Payments Reporter. These columns are available via the column selector and can be grouped, filtered, and saved as templates.
TIP
You can sort the Payments Report by clicking a column heading. Each click changes the data in ascending or descending order. When grouping specific columns, be sure to also sort the column headings to ensure you are viewing the report results in an organized manner.
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Payment Date | The date on which the payment was made. |
| Payer Name | The name of the person who made the payment. This column will only show a name if the payer is a logged-in Infinite Campus user. |
| Payment Method Account Name | If a name is entered in a payment method, it will be displayed in this field. |
| Recipient | The person receiving items purchased in the School Store or the student who was registered for an activity.
If an item was purchased and paid through the Campus Mobile Payments app, the student's name appears IF the student number was entered at the time of the purchase. |

If the 'Split Transaction and Service Fees' checkbox has been enabled within the Payments Setup Settings, any transaction or service fee involving a split will be designated with '(Split)' in its description.

| Payment Reference Number | This number is automatically generated by the payments platform and is a unique identifier for a specific transaction.
The Payment Reference Number for transactions from the new payment platform begins with p1_txn. To exclude Vanco transactions and only see transactions from the new payment platform, use p1_txn in the Payment Reference Number column to filter your report's results. |

About the Deposit Process
The deposit process runs daily before 5:45 PM Eastern Time (ET). The deposit job must complete by 6:00 PM Eastern Time (ET); otherwise, the payment platform moves the request date forward one day to ensure the deposit job has enough time to complete.
The deposit process does not run on weekends (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) or holidays.
| Step | Description | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 | Campus determines your district's account balance. When your district is processing payments, the fees associated with them and any returns/refunds you process are subtracted from your account balance when they occur. So, at the end of each business day Campus calculates the balance then requests a deposit. If your district's account balance is negative, Campus issues a negative deposit. | ||||||
 | After determining the balance, Campus combines transactions with the following statuses into a deposit.
