Review daily receipts and outstanding fees

For Accounting. Use Daily Summary to review recorded receipts across cases. Use the A/R report to review amounts still expected from resolutions. Neither report initiates payments or proves that a bank has cleared a transaction.

Review the day’s receipts

1. Open Finances → Accounting → Daily Summary.
2. Confirm the office scope. HQ staff should check the firm filter before reviewing totals.
3. Set the date range. This view uses Date Received, not Deposit Date, the day the entry was created, or the disbursement date.
4. Narrow by Type, Deposit Account, or Case when needed.
5. Compare Checks Received, Total Received, Attorney Fees, and Net Firm Revenue with the source receipts. Review the detail for litigation costs, liens, client recovery, and referrals.
6. Open the source case/check to investigate a mismatch. Correct the source record and refresh the summary before relying on its totals.

Expected result: you can explain which receipts make up the totals for the selected scope and received-date range. Different payments on the same recurring resolution remain separate receipts. The Search daily summary box narrows the visible rows only. It does not narrow the summary totals or Export CSV. Clear Search before comparing the visible list with totals or the downloaded file. Use the date, type, deposit-account, case, and office filters to define export scope.

Export and reconcile the summary

1. Confirm the filters and clear the Search box.
2. Select Export CSV.
3. Open the file and compare its receipt count, Amount Received, and totals with Daily Summary.
4. Confirm the client, case, account, and categories on a sample of source records before using the file for accounting work.

The file includes receipt amounts, attorney fees, litigation costs, liens, client recovery, referral amounts/name, and net firm revenue. It is a summary export, not a bank-transfer file or a validated QuickBooks check-import template. For a report with stored payment IDs, deposit dates, and separate payment-period dates, use Resolution Payment History. The Daily Summary export does not include those stored payment IDs. Select the date field that matches your task; do not treat a received-date report as a deposit-date report.

Review outstanding resolution balances

A/R means accounts receivable: amounts expected but not yet received.

1. Open Finances → Accounting → Resolutions and confirm the office scope.
2. Select A/R Report.
3. In A/R Report Options, choose the Resolution Types you need.
4. Select Open only (exclude paid-in-full rows) to focus on outstanding receipts, or leave it off for the broader ledger.
5. Select Generate CSV.
6. Compare a sample resolution’s gross amount, received amount, Receipts Outstanding, expected attorney fee, fee collected, and fee outstanding with its terms and linked payments.

A missing fee percentage can leave expected-fee calculations unavailable. Have the accounting owner verify the terms; do not enter a guessed percentage to fill a report. Recurring balances depend on the recorded schedule and elapsed periods.

Choose the next action

• To enter several new receipts, use Log Payments in Daily Summary and follow bulk logging.
• To approve submitted financial work, use Financial batch review. Reviewing a report does not approve those requests.
• To check whether recipients have been paid, inspect the linked disbursements.
• To verify an expense payment in QuickBooks, use its saved transaction link and sync details.
