Troubleshooting

    Solution: Click View Transactions to reveal the detailed breakdown of each transaction’s associated fee.
  • Issue: Billing report doesn’t load data after date selection
    Solution: Ensure your date range includes actual transaction activity. Try expanding the date window or verifying deposit dates.
