Processing Payments in a Multischema System

You can use Payment Center in a multischema environment. This support for multischema payment processing allows you to:

  • Create and submit a single payment batch that includes payments made to customer accounts across multiple schemas.

  • Create and submit a single reverse or refund payment batch for payments associated with customer accounts in various schemas.

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

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

To enable multischema support for payment processing, do the following:

  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".
