Statements Job

You can create a job to generate and export statements.

Warning: If a Statements job fails to export the file, NextGen® Background Business Processor does not export the statement file, even if it looks acceptable. When a Statements export job fails, it is probable that NextGen® Background Business Processor has not updated the Next Statement Dates. This could result in duplicate statements in the next statement run.
