# Financial Transactions Report

<mark style="color:blue;">`GET`</mark> `/v2/finplus/debtmanagement/financialtransactions`

This report provides **a comprehensive view of transactions**, offering the ability to **group** data by family/parent while also allowing for further **breakdowns** per learner using the `per_learner` parameter. When `per_learner` is specified, the family/parent object is extended to include **learner-specific transaction details**. The API supports flexible filtering options, such as date ranges, category IDs, debtor codes, learners, and accountable persons.

The possible **transaction types** and **transaction categories** can be looked up using the [Get Transaction Type(s)](/v2/reference/finance+/debt-management/get-transaction-type-s.md) and [Get Transaction Category(s)](broken://pages/VqXRquSvVzmxaz0SXOwk) API calls.

### Pagination <a href="#pagination" id="pagination"></a>

The response data includes a `meta` object that contains **pagination-specific metadata**. You can use the following query parameters to **control pagination**:

* **limit**: This parameter allows you to override the default limit of records returned, up to the `max_allowed_limit` specified in the response's `meta` object.
* **cursor**: If the `meta` object contains a `next_cursor` field, it indicates that more records are available. To fetch the next set of records, include the `cursor` parameter in your request with the value of `next_cursor`. If the `next_cursor` field is not present, it means there are no more records to retrieve.
* **reverse\_order**: This parameter can be used to reverse the order in which the data is returned, useful for fetching the latest records first.
