This report analyzes monthly or daily transactions for a specified date range. It displays the monthly or daily transaction activity in summary format. Use this report to compare the totals in active AR for the current month/current year-to-date with the same month of the previous year/previous year-to-date. Report totals are based on year-to-date totals for the specified day for each year. You can get the transaction activity by monthly or daily summary. By default, this report is based on monthly activity for a specific day of month/day of year period. You can also filter the report for daily activity. For daily activity, the Accounting Begin Accounting Date Begin must not be the first day of the same month as the Accounting End Accounting Date End.

The data in this report is determined by the Accounting Dates configured for the practice. This option determines which dates are used for reporting financial transactions related to charges, payments, and adjustments (contractual write offs, insurance withholds, refunds, write offs and adjustments).

For charges, the practice can be configured to use Date of Service, Posted Date, or Accounting Date for reporting purposes.

  • If configured for Date of Services, charges are reported by date of service on the case.

  • If configured for Posted Date, charges are reported by the posted date of the charge.

  • If configured for Accounting Date, charges are reported by the specified accounting date entered on the charge batch.

For payments, the practice can be configured to use Posted Date or Accounting Date for reporting purposes.

  • If configured for Posted Date, payments are reported by the posted date of the payment.

  • If configured for Accounting Date, payments are reported by the specified accounting date entered on the payment batch.
