Update
Our engineering team has successfully completed the reinstatement of all recoverable data in relation to the November 15th Google Cloud Platform outage that affected U-Series customers. These recovery efforts include both payments and HQ reporting. All payments are captured and all information in HQ is up to date.
If there are still inconsistencies in your payments or reporting, or if you have any questions, please reach out to support via chat at help.upserve.com or via phone at 855-664-8335.

Update
Our engineering team is making progress on reconciling delayed reporting data in response to the November 15th U-Series outage. Our focus this week remains on recovering as much of this data as possible. While this occurs, HQ reporting will remain inconsistent.
All delayed payments from the outage were captured last week and should have been deposited today in correlation with the normal deposit schedule. To view the U-Series deposit schedule, please visit https://help.upserve.com/s/article/Deposit-Schedule-with-Upserve-Payments.
For the best performance, make sure all your terminals are running the latest version of the application available in the app store, if you haven't already done so.

Update
Our engineering team has begun successfully capturing delayed payments from the November 15th U-Series Outage. This process will continue throughout the weekend. Note that this work only affects payments and that reporting in HQ will continue to be inconsistent until further investigation can be done into potential recovery for that data. Thank you for your continued patience as this process continues in the coming days.
