Deposit Reporter (Payments)

Tool Search: Deposit Reporter

Use the Deposit Reporter to check the status of deposits made into your district's or school’s bank accounts. This tool can also be used to calculate the total deposits for each bank for a specific date range.

After payments are processed and settled by the payment platform, the money is disbursed to your district's or school's bank accounts. These disbursements appear as deposits in the Deposit Reporter tool. The deposit amount for a date and bank account should match the amount deposited into your bank account. After payments are settled or after returns and transactions fees are processed by the payment platform, the money is disbursed to your bank account. You may see withdrawals (negative deposit amounts) from bank accounts to cover refunds and fees.

You can see all of the payments from a single deposit by selecting a payment on the Deposit Reporter. Selecting a payment displays the Deposit Detail panel

  • Negative deposits can take 5-7 business days before they have a Deposit State of Completed in Campus. Funds from a negative deposit can be withdrawn before the 5-7 days while the deposit has the status of Processing.
  • If your district’s first deposit is a negative dollar amount, that negative deposit must first complete before any subsequent deposits can complete.

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.

StepDescription
1.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.
2.After determining the balance, Campus combines transactions with the following statuses into a deposit.
  • Completed
  • Resolved
  • Returned
  • Partial returned
  • Returnvoid
  • Transactions with a settled date
  • Transaction Fees
There is a brief delay (up to 1 hour) between the time the deposit request is made and when the deposit is processed by the payment platform.

Contact Campus Support if a Deposit State does not update from PENDING to PROCESSING after 24 hours.

AmountThe amount of the deposit.
You may see withdrawals (negative deposit amounts) from bank accounts to cover refunds and fees.
For amounts that do not round to the cent, Campus makes rounding adjustments by creating an Adjust Out value that ensures the total is a valid monetary value. For the next deposit within that bank account, Campus applies the removed amount as an Adjust In value before calculating the total. 
Bank ReconciliationWhen a deposit is made, it displays as one transaction in the Deposit Reporter, but a single deposit can be a total of multiple deposits. Click the Bank Reconciliation button to generate an Excel file that separates the deposit. 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.Sample of the Bank Reconcilation excel file, showing 2 unique distribution references, while the request and deposit reference are the same.

Deposit Detail Panel

You can see all of the payments from a single deposit by selecting a payment on the Deposit Reporter. Selecting a payment displays the Deposit Detail panel. Information on the Deposit Detail panel can be exported as a CSV file.

In the following example, Campus provides rounding adjustments (Adjust In and Adjust Out lines) to ensure the Total remains in the correct decimal value.

Deposit Request Report Example

There are three parts to the Deposit Request Report.

Part 1 - Summary

The Summary section of the report displays the bank accounts, request date(s), and amounts. The Daily Deposit Summary displays the date you selected and all other reports display the applicable date range. 

  • The last four digits of the bank account and Bank Account ID display in the Bank Account column. 
  • The Total for the Deposit Request displays after the bank information. 
  • The Grand Total for all bank accounts displays at the bottom of the first page.
    Note: The Grand Total includes rollover amounts from the previous linked deposit. Before it is included, the rollover amount is rounded to the nearest penny (Adjust In). The excess amount is subtracted (Adjust Out) and applied to the next deposit.

Part 2 - Deposit Details

The Deposit Details include the Fund ID, Fund Description, Fee type, Payer Name, Recipient, Payment Reference Number, and Amount grouped by Bank Account. The Payment Reference Number is useful if you need to manually calculate the payment from which the fee(s) originated and verify the fee allocation. There is a Grand Total at the end of this section.

Sample output of the Deposit Details section of the report, showing the fund ID and description, payer, reference number and amounts. The Adjustments and Totals show at the bottom.

Part 3 - Fund Totals

The third part of this report displays totals by Fund ID, listed in the Calculated Fund Totals or Actual Fund Totals sections. The Calculated Fund Totals section only includes payments made while the ‘Split Transaction and Service Fees’ checkbox is not checked and the Actual Fund Totals section will only include payments made while the ‘Split Transaction and Service Fees’ checkbox is checked.

The Calculated Fund Totals section will display the gross amount by Fund ID, followed by the calculated Transaction Flat Fee and Merchant Fees that belong to each Fund ID.

The Actual Fund Totals section will only display if the ‘Split Transaction and Service Fees’ checkbox has been enabled within the Payments Setup Settings. This section will display how the Transaction Flat Fee and Merchant Fees were actually split by Fund ID. The Service Fee column will also display along the top of the section since it is no longer being separated into its own Fund ID. Once enabled, the Calculated Fund Totals section will only display if there are non-split transactions included within the report.
