ACH Payment Returns Report

Go to Reports and select ACH Returns.

Use the ACH Returns Lookup report to review and take action on your ACH Returns. The report loads with a default filter of ‘Incoming Date was in the last 90 Days’ by default. Clicking on an ACH Return displays its details, including advice about handling the ACH Return and a link to view the original ACH transaction.

View the ACH Returns Lookup table below for a definition of the column headings.
