How does the Secretary ensure the Treasurer has the details for any WePay Deposits?
When a member makes an online payment in OLP, the payment is recorded automatically on the member record AND displayed in a daily collated Officer Funds Transfer that separates any online payments from a cash or check payment.
This online Officer Fund Transfer report provides the Secretary and Treasurer with a single source of data:
- which members made a payment,
- what amount was paid (and what transaction fees were removed),
- what were the payments for (to which income account does the money get assigned),
- what is the total deposit amount.
Location of Officer Fund Transfers:
Income / Expenses > Officer Fund Transfers > Online Yes

Detail View (Processing Fees covered by the member):
There are two circumstances where you'll receive a member payment without any processing fees:
- Your local is opting into Surcharge the member and the member pays by credit card, OR
- Your local is opting into Surcharge the member and the member pays by debit (bank-linked) card and checks the box to cover all processing fees.
Here you'll see four tables:
- Line by line of each receipt with details including last four of card number
- Breakdown By Payor
- Breakdown By Receipt Type (separates Online Credit Card from Online Debit Card)
- Breakdown By Account (Separates Dues by Dues Year, and any other income accounts)
- Total deposit amount
Detail View (Processing Fees paid by the local group):
There are two circumstances when you'll see processing fees on the Officer Funds Transfer:
- Some locals choose to cover all the processing fees for the members.
- When your local group surcharges your members who pay by credit card, no matter what, you'll still be responsible for any debit (bank-linked cards) card processing fees when a member doesn't volunteer to cover those fees themselves.
Here's what the Officer Fund Transfer looks like when the local group is paying those fees:
Again, You see the same four tables, and you'll also see, for any member who paid with debit card and did NOT cover the processing fees, that they have a separate line item subtracting the fees from their total payment. The Total payment will subtract any processing fees for any applicable transaction.
