Overview

The Payment Report allows users to view information on payment transactions. These payments may include travel payments, credit card payments, reimbursements to individuals, payments for honoraria or fees or any other payment resulting from the submission of a request for payment to Accounts Payable. The report may be run at any time and can be narrowed to include a specific time period or periods and against a specific cost object or multiple cost objects.
