Transaction list

The transaction list holds all of your transactions for the merchant code selected at the top of the screen. The most recently added (or changed) transaction is at the top of the list. You can change the order of this list by clicking on any of the column headings. Click again on the same heading to reverse the order. An up arrow [ ] or down arrow [ ] symbol shows you the column that is ordered.

There are up to 10 results on each page of the transaction list. You can click the Previous or Next buttons to move forward or back a page.

This section tells you about the columns and what they mean.

Alert

This shows you an exclamation [ ] symbol next to any transactions that have failed one or more key risk checks. When you see an exclamation [ ] symbol, we recommend that you look more closely at this transaction before you fulfil the order. The Payment tab of this transaction shows you more information about the risk checks that may have failed. See Risk Details to learn more.

If you are new to fraud, see the Managing Fraud Guide for more information.

If you have a basic understanding of fraud, but want to learn more about our Risk Management Service, see the Risk Management Service Guide.
