Reports & Settlement

Overview

The Reports & Settlement services provide partners with the information required to reconcile transactions and settle financial obligations with Viamericas.

The platform generates two types of reports as part of the settlement process:

  1. Daily Settlement Statement
  2. Monthly Invoice

Both reports are automatically generated and delivered to partners through a secure FTP location configured during onboarding.

These reports allow partners to:

  • Track transactions
  • Verify settlement calculations
  • Process payments owed to Viamericas

Settlement Processes

1. Daily Settlement Process

The Daily Settlement Process runs every night and consolidates all transactions processed during the previous business day.

Purpose

To provide partners with a daily reconciliation report of transactions processed through the ViaBlocks platform.

Process Flow

  1. The system aggregates all transactions from the previous day.
  2. Transactions are consolidated into a settlement dataset.
  3. A PDF statement report is generated containing the transaction details.
  4. The report is deposited in the partner’s secure FTP folder with Viamericas.

Output

  • Frequency: Every time an invoice is requested

PDF Report Contents

Partners use this report to reconcile activity with their internal systems.


2. Monthly Billing Process

At the end of each month, the system generates an official invoice summarizing the financial activity for the billing period.

Purpose

To provide a formal billing document that reflects the amount owed to Viamericas based on the services and transactions processed during the month.

Process Flow

  1. The system aggregates all transactions processed during the billing period.
  2. Billing calculations are applied based on the partner’s pricing configuration.
  3. The Invoice Service validates the invoice data.
  4. The invoice is generated using the configured invoice template.
  5. A PDF invoice document is created.
  6. The invoice is stored in the document storage system.
  7. The final invoice document is deposited in the partner’s secure FTP folder.
