Entering Payment Information


The Payment Information view allows end users to submit a record of payment received from a customer in response to a credit alert. One possible resolution for a credit alert involves the customer's immediate payment of the amount outstanding. End users can enter multiple instances of payment information for a single credit alert.

The Credit Alert Detail form displays a selected credit alert. The Payment Information form changes dynamically depending on the payment method end users select in the Method field.
