Searching for Deployments

A deployment contains all of the details that were submitted at the time the virtual card was created, including any Custom Data Field information. You can search in Visa Commercial Pay Reporting for deployments as soon as a virtual card is created.

You can search for individual deployments, groups of deployments or deployments over a specific date range.

You can narrow this down to the Spend Type and Card Pool or leave blank to view all.

You can also search using:

  • Deployment ID (the number allocated at card creation)

  • Supplier Name (as it shows in the booking tool)

  • Reference (i.e. the booking reference at the hotel)

  • PNR Locator

  • Last 4 Digits (of the card)

  • Deployment Status

If you do not wish to use any of these parameters you will need to use a date range, of up to three months, which defaults to one month back from the current date. Select dates using the calendar or manually type them in, and this will return deployments created within the specified range.

You can also narrow deployment searches down using filters:

  • Transaction Matched? (returns results that have been matched to a transaction)

  • Invoices Matched? (returns results where an invoice/folio has been matched)

  • Reconciled? (returns results where a deployment has been matched to a transaction and an invoice has either been added or marked as Invoice Not Required)

  • Document Matched? (returns results where document has been matched)

If you select a Spend Type of Hotel, Air or Rail, you will see additional relevant search parameters under Advanced Options:

  1. Hotel—Hotel Name, Address, Check-Out Date Range and Traveler.

  3. Rail—Departure Station, Departure Date and Traveler.
