Payment Summary

The Payments Summary page displays a list of payments by status (All, Settled, Reduced, or Returned). IPP also displays the same set of data for any payment search results. By default, IPP lists all payments by Issue Date in descending order, showing the most recent transactions first. The number of days displayed defaults to 90 days, but you can change this value in your Preferences.

You can further filter the list by using the Add Filters option located in the upper right, and you can sort the list by clicking any linked column header. You can then toggle the sort order by clicking the ascending or descending indicator for the sorted column. You can drill down to view payment details using the View button or clicking the linked Payment Type Reference Number.

Permissions

Payment-related links and data are only visible if you have the View Payments permission assigned to one of your roles. Due to the sensitive nature of tax-related payment data, to view details about Treasury offsets for a reduced payment, you must have the Treasury Offset Details role (which includes the View Payments permission). Contact your IPP Collector Administrator if you need additional roles or permissions.

The Payments Summary page displays the following fields for each payment:

Field Name

Description

TIN

Taxpayer Identification Number or IPP-assigned ID. IPP creates IDs for vendors who do not have a TIN (e.g. foreign vendors), and these are distinguished from TINs by an ā€œiā€ as the ninth character. For security purposes, IPP masks this value and displays only the last four digits.

Payee Name

Exact Payee Name from the remittance. This value may vary if your organization has multiple branches or sub-units.

Payment Type

The type of payment that was made: ACH, check, or wire transfer.

Payment Type Reference # link

 

Reference Number for the payment, based on the payment type. This is the ACH Trace Number, Check Number (Original check symbol plus Original check number), or Wire Number. Clicking the link displays the payment details (as does the View button in the last column).

Invoice #

(or Credit Memo Number ), if applicable for the payment. For IPP invoices, clicking the link displays the invoice.

PO #/Blanket PO #

PO number associated to the invoice. For IPP invoices associated with an IPP PO, clicking the link displays the PO; if the PO is not known to IPP, this field displays "No IPP PO". If there is no PO associated with the invoice, this field is blank.

Agency

Name of your agency. If blank, payment is associated with more than one agency. Click to view the agency directory information.

Payer Name

Full Payer Name associated with the ALC who made the payment.

Amount

Payment amount remitted. For Reduced payments, this field displays the reduced (net) amount.

Issue Date

Date the payment processed by the US Treasury.

Status

The status of the payment. The types of statuses are:

  • All - displays all payment statuses

  • Settled Full - Payment was made in full.

  • Settled Reduced - Payment was made but the net amount was reduced by the Treasury to fulfill another government obligation.

  • Returned - Payment was returned by your financial institution, often due to incorrect account or routing data on file.
