You can validate multiple pending transactions at the same time using **Commission > Validate > Batch Process Commission**. You can do this manually or automate the process.

## Create an accepted or declined file

2. Download either the **Accepted** or **Declined** template.
3. Complete the following fields:
  - **Order Reference**
  - **Transaction Date**
  - **Status**
4. Update the **Status** field:
  - For declined transactions, enter *Declined*. In the **Status Note** field, select one of the decline reasons listed in the template.
  - For approved transactions, enter *Accepted*.

## Format your file correctly

Before uploading your file:

- Save the file as a **.csv**.
- You can keep the column headings in place.
- If you remove the column headings, clear the **Contains column headings** checkbox during upload.

## Upload your file

1. Go to **Commission > Validate > Batch Process Commission**.
2. Select **Manual Upload**.
3. Under **File Settings**:
  - Select **Contains column headings**.
  - Select **Remove duplicates**.
  - Clear **Leave amended commissions as pending**.
4. Enter your email address if you’d like to receive a notification when the upload is complete.

After the upload finishes, you can review the results in **Batch Process History**.
