A new Distribute and Freeze Autopay (C1APAYDF) batch control is available to distribute and freeze automatic payments. The process supports multi-threading and groups work by Account Autopay ID so that all automatic payments for the same Account Autopay ID are processed within the same thread. When the Autopay Creation Option on Installation Options is set to 'Create on Extract Date', this batch control complements:

  • Create autopay on extract date (APAYCRET)
  • Generate autopay for pay plans (PPAPAY)
  • Create autopay for NBBs (NBBAPAY)

This prevents concurrent processing of the same record and ensures match events are created in the intended order, reducing exceptions.

Steps to enable and configure

Configure or schedule the Distribute and Freeze Autopay (C1APAYDF) batch control to run at an implementation-defined intervals on your batch schedule to initiate distributing and freezing automatic payments. This can replace the Distribute and Freeze Autopay (APAYDSFR) batch control.

Tips and considerations

A new To Do Type, Distribute and freeze autopay errors (C1APAYDF), is provided to create To Do Entries for object-specific errors detected by the above batch process.
