Configuring the Process Payments Window

Notes

All properties of this screen share these fields:

OWNER_KEY = <owner_key>

EVNT = ‘PAY Process Payment Setup’

For this screen to be available for use (not grayed out on the menu), at least one property (usually Process_Button_Function) must have IN_USE_FLAG = True and have a valid EVNT_MEMO. Aside from this, all properties are optional. Customers which simply have custom data feeds and use the Payment Confirmation Process will not use this screen and should not have it configured (e.g. Baxter, Ford)
