Setting Up Automatic Payment Extracts
You will need an automatic payment extract for every mechanism your company uses to route automatic payment requests to a financial institution / clearing house. For example:
- You will need an automatic payment extract to interface records to the Automated Clearing House (ACH) if you allow customer to pay via credit card or direct debit from a checking account. The APAYACH and C1-APACH processes delivered with the system are intended to be used to handle this function.
If you need additional automatic payment extract processes, set up the following information:
- Add a new batch control record. Populate the fields as follows:
- Batch Process. Assign an easily recognizable unique ID for the automatic payment extract process.
- Description. Enter a description of the automatic payment extract process.
- Accumulate All Instances. Turn this switch on.
- Use Auto Pay Route Type to define the auto pay extract process to be used for each route type.
