Order reconciliation
"Order reconciliation" means the process of verifying orders to send out the payout instruction with OwlPay. You can either select single or multiple orders for reconciliation.
If you select multiple orders for order reconciliation, the OwlPay system will consolidate these orders into one reconciliation order. You can think of it as multiple orders being "packed", and there will be only one reconciliation order on the Review page.
How to view the order available for reconciliation
On the reconciliation page, only orders available for reconciliation will be displayed. Check Order reconciliation status for more details.
The reasons for not being able to apply for order reconciliation may be due to
- the company's information verification has not been passed
- the vendor's information verification has not been passed
- the order has set an "allowable date for reconciliation", and has not yet reached the specified date.
You can view all the order information available for reconciliation. Columns include:
- Total order sales: total transaction amount for this order
- Vendor: vendor of this order
- Custom order number: custom order number you name on OwlPay
- Order created time: order creation time (orders automatically imported from your system to OwlPay)
- Order Imported time: order Creation Time (order is created manually from OwlPay)
You can adjust the display table columns by clicking the "Filter" button.
Clicking on "Display rejected orders only" will only display rejected orders from the Review page.
