Processing Payments in a Multischema System

You can use Payment Center in a multischema environment.

The multischema support for payment processing enables you to:

  • Create and submit a single payment batch containing payments made to customer accounts residing in multiple schemas.

  • Create and submit a single reverse or refund payment batch containing payments made to customer accounts residing in multiple schemas.

  • Move the suspended payments to the payment suspense account set up for the connected schema.

  • Recycle the suspended payments to one or more customer accounts residing in multiple schemas by using Payment Center. For example, if you are connected to schema 1, you can use Payment Center to recycle payments from the payment suspense account set up for schema 1 to customer accounts residing in different schemas.

To add multischema support for payment processing:

  1. Set up a multischema system. See "Installing a Multischema System" in BRM Installation Guide.

  2. Create separate payment suspense accounts for each schema in your system. See "Creating a Payment Suspense Account".
