An Outstanding Paperwork report recognizes which transactions from the last 6 months from your client’s bank feed lack their supporting documents and are pending reconciliation. You can send this report straight to your client's phone so they know exactly what is missing and saves you time chasing missing items.
Please note this feature is only available for Streamline and Optimize Partner accounts integrated with Xero and Sage Online.

You can create an Outstanding Paperwork report by following these steps:
1. Navigate to your 'Client View Dashboard' and locate the Outstanding Paperwork column.
2. Choose the client you want to create a report for and click on the number showing how many outstanding items are missing.
3. This will open a complete list of those items that need to be reconciled, but haven’t been submitted to Dext Prepare or aren’t present in Xero or Sage. Items that are still in processing will also be included in the report. The report updates once a day considers all bank items going back 6 months, for all client bank accounts within their respective Xero or Sage integrations.
4. Use the search options to filter by bank account, date range or amount so that you can quickly customize the report for specific outstanding items that you need, ahead of sending it to your client. Enter any notes or queries you have about the items.
5. Tick the checkboxes next to those transactions for which you’d like to inquire with your client then click the green “Share” button.
6. Then select the user you would like to send the report to and decide on the format of the report to be sent; CSV, PDF, or Google Sheet.
7. Once sent, your client will receive a push notification on their mobile device notifying them that an Outstanding Paperwork report is now available. This allows them to quickly review and submit the requested items, all from within the Dext Prepare mobile app!
8. You can check the status of the requested items within the outstanding report in the web app. A grey icon shows that a request has been sent to your client’s mobile app, while a red icon shows that your client has dismissed the requested item.
