Understanding Setting Up ePayment Profiles

Electronic payment (ePayment) profiles enable you to control the selection of open items for ePayment processing and the processing of ePayment worksheets that have been created. The Electronic Payment Scheduler Application Engine process (AR_EPY_PRCS) uses ePayment profiles to control the batch creation of ePayment worksheets.

Electronic Payment Profile Page

Use the Electronic Payment Profile page (AR_EPAY_PRFL) to set up electronic payment profiles.
