Recurring E-Check Billing

 
Sales Data
 
The payment type Recurring E-Check billing allows user to create recurring ACH payments. All required fields are marked with a red asterisk  Although the fields Cost Center/ Internal Num, SAP GL/Account and Fund Number may or may not have default values, depending on the merchants preference.  Ensure that all numerical fields do not contain space, if there are errors in the fields or invalid characters are entered the form will not be processed .
 
Type A merchants require the following fields within the sales data to be completed:
 "Cost Center/ Internal Num", "SAP GL/Account", "Fund Number", and the "Sale Amount".  Type A merchants can only enter one SAP revenue account to any one credit card transaction.
 
 
A type B merchant only requires the "MRN#" and "Sale Amount" field to be completed.
 
 
A type C merchant can enter several SAP accounts within a single credit card sale. Because Type C can enter several SAP accounts there are several rows within the Credit Card Sale form allocated for the input of SAP information. The user must ensure that the Amount fields of the SAP revenue accounts sum to the exact value of the Sale Amount field. By default the user only has three available fields to input SAP information, if the user needs to enter more than three SAP accounts he/she can click the blue addition symbol located below the last enter  SAP account entered. Although it is defaulted to show three user fields, only one of the fields is required to be completed totaling to the required Sale Amount field.
 
 
A type D merchant can enter several SAP accounts within a single credit card sale. It has the same general requirement fields and structure to the type C merchant. Only one account is required in order to continue rather then the defaulted three blank users that are given.
