What is the difference between the Remittance Advice Summary and Remittance Advice Detail reports?
The Remittance Advice Summary report only attempts to translate selected key information from the EDI data that most receivers find essential. The Remittance Advice Detail report attempts to translate all EDI data. This additional information might be useful to the receiver if the limited amount of data translated in the Remittance Advice Summary report does not meet that receiver’s needs. Please note that the detail report may produce many more pages of output than does the summary report. Typically, a customer would need either the detail or summary report but not both. It is advisable to work with the receiver to determine which report best meets its needs.
