Get an overview of your transactions with these filters

As a webshop owner, your time is your most valuable resource. Yet many hours are often lost to manual processes, such as searching for one specific order in an endless list of transactions. It doesn’t have to be that way.

Your pensopay dashboard has a range of built-in tools designed to give you a quick overview of your transactions.

In this post, we walk you through the 8 most important filtering options and show you how to combine them to make your day-to-day work much more efficient.

How do I get a better overview of my transactions?

You get a better overview by using the filters in your pensopay payment overview. By combining criteria such as date, payment method (e.g. MobilePay or Klarna) and status, you can isolate specific data sets in seconds instead of searching manually.

Make use of these 8 filtering options

In the Payments menu, you’ll find the Filters button to the right of the search field. These are the settings you can adjust to find exactly what you’re looking for:

How do I handle complex searches?

You handle complex searches by combining the filters with the regular search field. If you first filter by e.g. “Status” and then search for a customer’s email address or an Order ID, you narrow down the results quickly.

Examples of using filters effectively in your daily work

To make this concrete, here are three scenarios where the right filters save you a lot of time in the daily running of your webshop.

1. Finding specific orders quickly

Imagine a customer contacts you about an order of exactly DKK 1,299 placed during a recent sale. Instead of scrolling through hundreds of transactions, you can combine the filters.

• Action: Set Date to the specific day and enter the amount in the Amount range.
• Result: You’re left with a very small number of orders and can answer the customer right away.

When it’s time for stocktaking or bookkeeping, you may need to see the volume for one specific payment method, e.g. MobilePay, to reconcile it with your payouts.

• Action: Select the period you want under Date and choose “MobilePay” under Methods.
• Result: You get a clean list ready for review or export, so you no longer need to sort things manually in Excel.

Some payment methods let the customer pay in several instalments, or you may need to capture the amount in several stages (e.g. for split shipments). This can quickly make your overview hard to follow, because one order can have several transaction lines.

• Action: Turn on the Show only partial captures filter.
• Result: You get a clear overview of the purchases where the amount is split across several transactions. This gives you full control over what is still to be paid, so you always stay on top of your cash flow and your instalments.
