transactions
Merchants can perform four different types of credit card transactions from the Transactions Datagrid. Additionally, merchants can choose to save the customer data from a transaction or perform a one-off transaction without saving customer data.
FUNDING
The Funding Datagrid enables users with the appropriate permissions to view the funding entries of an organization’s locations. By default, Dex displays the funding entries for the previous thirty days, but you can filter the displayed results by Effective Date, Bank Account Number, Amount, Funding Source and/or Funding Status.
REPORTS
The self serve reporting module allows merchants to generate reporting on transaction and funding activities for a given time frame. Merchants with the appropriate permissions can also export transactions to a .csv file that can then be stored on a local computer or imported into an accounting application for processing.
