Here is an explanation of the filters available.
Field | Description |

Merchant Account Number | This is the accountNumber provided to us by the merchant. |
Mobile Number | The mobile number the customer paid with. |
From Date and To Date | This is the time period between which you want to view payments for. |
Wallet Transaction Id | This is the banks or mobile network operator’s unique reference. |
Transaction Id | This is Cellulant’s unique payment identifier. |
Overall status or Payment Status | This is the state in which a payment is in i.e. escalated, pending acknowledgement, accepted and rejected. |

Payer Client | This is the mobile network operator or bank the payment came from |
Service | This is the service names given by the merchant administrator when creating their service. |
Once a clicks on the search button the list of filtered transactions will be displayed in a grid view as shown below.
From the portal transactions will be marked in the following statuses:
Status | Description |
---|---|
Payment pending acknowledgement | This is the status given to a payment when it has just been received from the mobile money operator / Bank. |
Payment accepted | This is the status given when payment has been fully processed and the merchant has acknowledged the payment (either sent an acknowledgement of status 183 or responded on the web-hook with status 183). |
Payment escalated | This is the status given to a payment when an internal processing error occurred. This means the payment needs to be attended to so that service can either be manually issued or payment fully reversed. |
Payment rejected | This is the status given to a payment when the merchant sends a failed status back to Cellulant (either sends an acknowledgement to with status 180 or responds on the web-hook with status 180). This can also occur if a partial payment was made and it was not fulfilled in time, the due date in this case has already passed. This will also occur if there was a payment processing error and we could not push the payment to merchant. |
Payment pending full reversal approval | This is the status given to a payment when the merchant has requested for a full refund but the request has not yet been approved by the Cellulant’s finance team. |
Payment pending partial reversal approval | This is the status given to a payment when the merchant has requested for a partial refund but the request has not yet been approved by the Cellulant's finance team. |
Payment fully reversed | This is the status given to a payment when the merchant has requested for a full refund but the request has already been approved by the Cellulant’s finance team. |
Payment partially reversed | This is the status given to a payment when the merchant has requested for a partial refund and the request has already been approved by the Cellulant’s finance team. |
Payment logged as failed | This is the status given for showing a payment attempt that failed. This occurs because of either the customer delays in authorizing a push request sent to them hence there was a timeout or customer does not have enough funds in their wallet or the customer entered the wrong PIN. |
Payment held | This is the status given if a payment has been processed and pushed to the merchant and we are still waiting the merchant to acknowledge the payment as accepted or rejected. |
