This page displays details of daily lists (or batches) relating to authorised payments. The batches are listed in descending order and the date of each batch is displayed in the Totals column.

Some of the authorised payments will also have progressed to other payment statuses, for example, CAPTURED, CANCELLED, EXPIRED or SETTLED. Payments where the current status is Authorised, that is, they have not progressed to any of the completed statuses (CANCELLED, EXPIRED or SETTLED), are referred to as 'open payments'.

Totals are displayed as follows:

For full details of the fields, refer to Page description - Account Batch Status.

The value displayed for authorised and captured payments is an indicative amount as deductions for transaction-level charges (Transaction Service Charges and Guarantee Service Charges, if applicable), and the exchange rate used for currency conversion are applied at settlement. Refer to Settlement for details.
