Settlement reports
Settlement reports are detailed records summarizing all transactions processed through the Reach platform during a specific period.
The Settlement report contains various terms that may appear based on your filter settings and chosen CSV delivery format. The specific terms included in your report will depend on these preferences. Additionally, when you select a CSV delivery format, the terms may be slightly renamed to fit the column headings. The following table lists all possible terms that can appear in the Settlement report.
