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.
