Adding New Credit Card Types

Siebel Order Management provides the following credit card types without configuration: Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express.

You can add more credit card types by entering them as values in the List of Values list. Add a record with the Type PAYMENT_TYPE CODE, and add a value in the Order field to associate it with a payment method.

In the Order field, the number range for credit cards is 10 to 20. Values 11 through 14 are preconfigured for Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express. You can use a value between 15 and 19 to enter in the Order field for the new credit card, so all the credit cards appear together.

Note: If you need to add a payment type for a payment method other than credit card, then use the following value ranges in the Order field:

Check method: 20-29

Stored value method: 40-59

If you create another payment method which requires payment types, then use the range 60-80 for the new method.
