Transaction Master Detail Report
Overview
The Transaction Master Detail Report provides transaction detail visibility to Pay/Bill Transactions, which originate from the time entry system (i.e Bullhorn Time & Expense - BTE) or are manually entered in Payable or Billable Charges.
The report provides a detailed focus. For a summary of transactions, use the Transaction Master Summary Report. You can access all the reports through Canvas.
Bullhorn Support is able to assist with navigating the sample reports but are unable to build customizations on the reports for you. If you need customizations, you will need a Business Intelligence specialist who is familiar with writing database queries.
Best Practices
Leverage the Transaction Master Detail Report to conduct research or to perform a reconciliation.
As a tool, Bullhorn developed the Hours and Gross Pay Reconciliation Template as a template for your use. This is not a must-use tool. You should determine the best approach and best practices to manage your reconciliation process.
You should request a copy of the Reconciliation Template from your SI Partner during implementation or your Account Manager after implementation.
Report Uses
The primary reason to run the Transaction Master Detail Report is to pull pay and bill transaction details. This could be done to reconcile payable and billable charges or to research/review transactions related to a specific candidate, placement, client or bill-to client, etc.
If you anticipate the report may exceed the 10,000 row limit, utilize the report parameters to break the data into smaller groups.
Example: Use the Company filter to pull Company names that begin with A-M and then N-Z.
Depending on your company's needs, you may need to customize the report. Canvas report customization can be accomplished by one of the following approaches:
-
Your Cognos Report Writing resource can copy the Product report and make the necessary changes.
-
If you don't have an internal resource, you should contact your SI Partner to discuss the business needs.
Running the Report
-
From the Menu, select Canvas.
-
When Canvas opens, select Run beside the Transaction Master Detail Report.
-
Enter the criteria for the report.
-
If the Period End Date Range is the only desired report criteria, enter the date range and click Finish to run the report.
-
If you need additional report criteria, enter the date range, then click Next to indicate additional criteria on the next page.

The report details will display. Depending on your agency’s transaction volume, it may be easier to view the report via Excel.
-
To Export to Excel, select the drop down menu at the top of the report, click View in Excel Options, then select View in Excel 2007 Format.
-
The View in Excel 2007 Format option maintains the same report format as the Canvas report. If you need a data file without needing to keep the Canvas report formatting, then select the Data option.
-
-
Once the applicable Excel option is selected, BH1 will process the request, and the following screen will appear. Click on the xlsx file to open the file in Excel.
Once the report is exported to Excel, you can utilize standard Excel functions to filter, sort and pivot the data.
