Uses of the All Statements View
• Obviously, this report gives less detail than the Transaction View Report.
• It contains all the standard transactions and is easily considered and understood when opening the transaction report you download.
• It is also a great place for you to simply download as many transactions as you would like without having to use the “Transaction View” page to filter by date or transaction type.
• Of course, if you want to refine these reports, the Transaction View Report is the best way due to it having filters you can use to customise your report.
• The Transaction View also remains the best and most detailed report for you to figure out all of your expenses and all of your income.
• Either way, the All Statements View is a fast way for you to pull the necessary data to reconcile against the money you receive from Amazon in your bank account, or the money that Amazon deducted from your credit card.
