How to navigate the Accounting Ledger

Updated over a week ago

The WinRed Accounting Ledger allows you to track and view financial transactions, including donations, refunds, and payouts. The Ledger contains a detailed record of each record, such as the date, amount, type of transaction, and donor information.

Understand the Ledger

To access the Ledger, navigate to the Accounting tab and select the Ledger tab.

Here, you are presented with summary numbers at the top, the aggregate of the current filter settings. If you change the filters, then the numbers will update accordingly.

  • Donations Total gross amount of donations within your WinRed account

  • Refunds The total net amount of refunds processed on your account

  • Disputes —The total net amount of donations that have been disputed by a donor to their bank, which results from a complaint or fraudulent transaction.

  • Payouts Each time WinRed disperses funds to your bank account, this generates a Payout.

Underneath the summary numbers are the individual line items contained in the ledger. This accurately represents the financial transactions recorded within your WinRed account. The column labels in the Ledger allow you to differentiate between the separate transactions easily:


  • Type This identifies the type of transaction described in the previous section; Donation, Refund, Dispute, or Payout.

  • Date —The date that the transaction was initiated.

  • Name —The name of the donor associated to the transaction.

  • Gross —This is the total amount of all donations before fees and refunds are taken into account.

  • Fee —Total fees involved within this transaction. This includes Processing and Vendor fees.

  • Net — Net amount that has been paid out after fees.

  • Balance Your current balance of all pending and ready to pay out charges. This is a snapshot and subject to change before your next payout.


Next to each transaction, you will notice an Ellipsis tool allowing you to view the transaction details.
