Filtering and Sorting Transactions

By default, the list is filtered by Outstanding transactions. You can change this setting to show all transactions by clicking the small down arrow next to Outstanding and selecting All Transactions from the drop-down menu. See the image below:

Clicking on a column name will sort it in ascending order (unless this column is already the sort column, then it will change the sort to descending order).
Clicking on the column name a second time will sort it in descending order (unless it is already in descending order, then it will switch it to ascending order).

The small up/down arrows icon is displayed on the current sort column.  If the column is sorted in ascending order then the arrow pointing up is highlighted black. If the column is sorted in descending order then the column pointing down is highlighted black.

Performing Actions on Transactions

Log An Activity

You can now log calls you have had with your customer against one more selected transactions. This allows you to record details from conversations so that you can keep on top of your manual chasing activities.

See Log An Activity for details on how to do this.

Send Email

You can send a customer an email directly from Credit Hound. The benefit of sending emails through Credit Hound rather than your email client is that it is recorded against the customer activity and you may be able to track when the email has been opened by the recipient.

See Send a Manual Email for more information.

Dispute & Resolve

You can place transactions on dispute which stops them from being chased through Automatic Chasing.

To learn about disputes and resolving, see Disputing and Resolving Transactions.

Add Note

You can add notes against one or more selected transactions.

See Add a Note to Transactions for more information.
