ACH transaction status indicates where a transaction is in TabaPay's ACH processing flow. An API status does not represent final settlement because an ACH transaction can be returned after it has been processed.

API Transaction Statuses

Status	Description	Client action
`BATCH`	TabaPay has stored the transaction, but it has not reached the applicable ACH processing window.	Wait for ACH processing. Use Retrieve Transaction to check for a status change. May appear as `Batch` on the Transactions page in the TabaPay Portal.
`COMPLETE`	TabaPay has completed the ACH batch-processing stage.	Do not treat this status as final settlement. Review downstream ACH files and monitor for returns. May appear as `Completed` on the Transactions page in the TabaPay Portal.

The Retrieve Transaction API currently exposes BATCH and COMPLETE for ACH transactions. TabaPay Developers

File Processing Statuses

Source	Status	Description
Processed File	`Accepted`	Transaction was accepted during TabaPay ACH processing.
Processed File	`Rejected`	Transaction was rejected during TabaPay ACH processing.
Output File	`Complete`	Bank-processing information is available for the transaction.
Output File	`Error`	An error occurred during downstream processing.

Processed and Output files provide processing information that is not represented by the API status alone.

Note: You can find process file informaiton in the TabaPay Portal Reporting section or Report Builder.

Returns

A transaction can still be returned after processing. ACH returns appear later through the ACH Return File or the Daily Exceptions Report depending on your configuration. TabaPay Developers
