The following type of query may be used to retrieve the list of transactions that settled (were cleared for payment) within a particular time period:
select
TransactionId, Payment.Amount, Payment.BillingName, Payment.BillingAddress, ...
from
Donation
where
Payment.SettlementDate >= 2009-05-01
and
Payment.SettlementDate < 2009-06-01
and
Payment.SettlementStatus = "SETTLED"
This may be useful for reconciling online donations with a bank statement.
