I am sure I am missing something simple, but I can't seem to find where to view the points for each use year by their status (i.e., banked, current, borrowed) on the website. I want to make sure the right points are allocated to reservations and still available, but all I can see is the total number in each year (and how they got there) and all of the transactions.

I will call if needed, but am hoping there is a way to view this information online.

Sign into your membership. Under my dvc membership, click on my dashboard. Under vacation points, click manage vacation points. Under full statement of vacation point activity, click view transactions. Go through each contract and each use year to find what you are looking for. I do this each time I use points to make sure it is done correctly. Not so much of a problem now that we can do it yourself especially online, but some member services reps used to mess things up. They are your points, take the time to make sure they are used correctly.
 
These days I find it easiest to go in to book a dummy reservation. At the point selection process you can see what is what. Then I just cancel out of it without finalizing. But I change things a lot so my point history can get rather convoluted. In that history there isn't anyway to see for certain that banked or borrowed point were used either which is where going thru as if to book will show you the status.

Thanks for this information. It didn't work for me because the list of transactions doesn't include any information for changes to reservations where all I did was reallocate points (used banked points for a reservation that was using normal bankable points). I will definitely use this tool to track other transactions!

I think this will be my best bet. Thanks for the idea!
