Broadlume Payments Fee Statement Explanation

Applies to: Broadlume Payments

Covers how to read a monthly Fee Statement from the payment processor and use it reconcile against your bank statements.

Does not cover: Cyncly Payments, Cyncly Pay, or Payments Flex
 

You can match the reconciliation report to identify all the individual transactions in your monthly fee statement. When pulling the date range of the reconciliation report, please remember to look at the following business day after a new month begins to account for how batching and settling time frames work. 
 
For example, if June's statement started on June 1, you will set your search to begin on June 2. If the last day of June was the 30th, a Friday, you will end your search window on the next business day, Monday, July 3rd. So, the search parameters to match June’s transactions in the reconciliation report to June's fee statement would be June 2 - July 3.
