STEP 5: Complete Electronic Merchant Setup

With the assistance of our Support Team, use the Electronic Merchant Setup to create a Remedy record within MoversSuite Administration.

 

NOTE: Determine how many Merchant Setups to be built for a customer based on where the money for electronic and online payments is deposited.

STEP 7: Update Personnel records

Update Personnel Setup and Security Profile Setup records so that personnel you wish to access Electronic and Online Payments have appropriate privileges.

 

Electronic Payment Management Security Module

Once Electronic and Online Payments is enabled on your system, all users can access the following through the Accounting Tools Menu:

 

Credit Card/Bank Payment

Setup Credit Card/Bank Online Payment

 

They can also access the Capture New Payment Method screen through the AutoPay Setup (Recurring Billing) tab, as well.

 

However, these users can only add records for branches to which they are assigned to the Electronic Payment Management module. Therefore, assign the Electronic Payment Management module to each profile for each branch that you wish people to be able to add records through the following:

 

Credit Card/Bank Payment

Setup Credit Card/Bank Online Payment

 

Additionally, assignment to this module grants access to the Payment Method Management screen, which allows them to update the payment status and nickname of a payment method assigned to a Billing Record. This module must be assigned to each branch that you wish people to access. Set the Access Type to Full. The Allow Manager Privileges flag has no effect.

 

Figure 102: Add Security Profile Detail dialog

 

 

Recurring Billing Setup Security Module

Since the Payment Method Management screen is accessed through a Billing Record, personnel must also have Full access to the Recurring Billing Setup module as well. This module is not branch specific, therefore a single profile record is all that is needed to access the functionality.

 

Figure 103: Add Security Profile Detail dialog

 

 

Cash Receipts Security Module

Since Electronic Payments generate Cash Receipts batches and utilize other Cash Receipts functions, each person you wish to process payments must have Full access to the Cash Receipts module for each supported branch. Additionally, set the Allow Manager Privileges flag to allow employees to refund and void Electronic Payments.
