Payout Export and Remittance
Export Detail (CSV)
The Export Detail action on a Payout Batch produces a 24-column CSV with one row per pledge/designation:
- Pledge ID, type, campaign name, campaign type, payment method
- Designation name, fund organization
- Amount designated, processing fee, fundraising fee, total fee
- Previously paid, net payable, held/released status, held reason
- Banking info fields (ACH routing number, account number) for direct ACH initiation
Export Summary (CSV)
The Export Summary action produces a per-agency aggregation with ACH routing and account number columns for direct ACH payment initiation.
Payout Workflow
- Preview — run Export Summary without saving payout rows; review distributions before committing
- Build Payouts — calculate and save PayoutRow records per agency (batch must be in Created status)
- Review — verify the Summary tab shows correct per-agency amounts and ACH details
- Export — download Detail and Summary CSVs for your accounting system
- Commit — finalise the batch (irreversible); status changes to Committed
- Initiate ACH — use the Summary CSV to initiate ACH payments to agencies in your banking system
Held Amounts
The Detail export shows held designations separately:
| Hold Reason | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Write-In | Donor wrote in a fund name not in the designation list; requires manual resolution |
| Local | Fund’s organization matches the payout account; retained locally |
Audit Trail
The Payout Batch records builtBy/builtDate and committedBy/committedDate for accountability. The Audit Log tab shows the complete history of all actions on the batch.
