Transaction Search and View

The Search and View functionality, available in the Transactions Menu, provides an insight into the ongoing transactions, in overview and in detail for every transaction.


The multi-functional filters of the search engine ensure powerful sorting / grouping possibilities, bringing in one list all transactions exactly fitting the research scope.


The list of transactions, returned by the search, can be exported to a file for further analysis.


Individual transaction can be viewed and subsequently a series of actions can be performed on it. See Transaction Details for more information.

Mark 1: Transactions Menu

Mark 2: The hierarchy level

The search can be performed at the PSP, Division, Merchant, Channel level.

Important: If a specific transaction is not present in the returned search results, first check if the selected level in the hierarchy is correct. Are you looking for it within the wrong Channel / Merchant / Division?

Mark 3: Periods filters

Select from the various filter options for time periods - Day, Week, Month, Year and also Today - the one which fits the search scope. Toggle on the arrows to easily move from one period to the another. 

Mark 4: Date and Time filters

Tweak the period for higher precision, selecting the From / To Date and Time values.


Mark 5: Logical filters

The logical filters allow the users to assemble more complex search based on transactions parameters defined in the API Reference.

Use the search box and the filters below to search transactions by any value.

The easiest way is to type the search value, e.g. transaction ID, e-mail, credit card brand etc. in the 'Search for...' field.

The search is predictive, therefore the system sets the right filters for you based on the values in the search field. You may need to adjust one or other field if the system did not pick it correctly.

E.g.
To search transactions made with Credit Card Visa, type: cc Visa
To search for combined values, e.g. Deutsche Bank, type: "Deutsche bank"

  • Set filter = Account country and select the desired country from the available drop down list:

  • Set filter = Amount and enter the desired amount in the available field. It is possible to search using the equal, bigger than or smaller than logic.  

  • Set filter = Bank Code/BIC and enter the desired code in alpha-numeric format:

  • Set filter = Card or account holder and enter the desired name in alpha-numeric format: 

  • Set filter = Clearing Institute and select the desired value from the available drop down list  

  • Set filter = Clearing Institute Country and select the desired value from the available drop down list:

  • Set filter = Connector Detail Name and enter the desired name in alpha-numeric format: 

  • Set filter = Credit Card Brand and select the desired value from the available drop down list: 

  • Set filter = Criterion Name and enter the desired value in alpha-numeric format: 

  • Set filter = Currency and select the desired value from the available drop downlist: 

  • Set filter = Customer country and select the desired value from the available drop down list: 

  • Set filter = Customer name and enter the desired name in alpha-numeric format:  

  • Set filter = Debit Card Brand and select the desired value from the available drop down list:

  • Set filter = IP and enter the desired value in numeric format:

  • Set filter = Mandate ID and enter the desired value in alpha-numeric format:

  • Set filter = Merchant Account and select the desired value from the available drop down list:

  • The "Merchant Account" filter criterion is displayed only when logged in in BIP at root or PSP level. The list of possible values for this filter is populated with all merchant accounts owned by the entity at which level the user is logged in.

    For example if the user is logged-in at PSP level and the PSP owns 2 merchant accounts then the list of possible values for this filter will contain the value "All" plus the two merchant accounts owned by the PSP.

    If the user is logged-in at PSP level and the PSP doesn't own any merchant accounts itself (i.e. MAs are owned only by entities at lower levels) then the list of possible values for this filter will contain only the value "All".

    The values in this list will not change no matter if the user selects in the entity tree the PSP or a division/merchant/channel under that PSP. The list will always contain the MAs owned by the PSP.

    • Set filter = Method and select the desired value from the available drop down list:

    • Set filter = Number / IBAN - BIN (First 6 Digits) and enter the desired value in numeric format:
