| − | BPAY is a payment collection method that allows customers to pay bills over the Internet or phone banking via their bank or financial institution. The invoices created by our system will also include BPAY details if you are a registered BPAY biller, and your BPAY details have been configured correctly.
| |
| | | | |
| − | For more information about setting up your BPAY biller details in order to allow BPAY as a payment method for your customers, please contact the Emersion Sales team.

| − | Service providers can configure the BPAY reference number format to use (i.e. per your bank’s or financial institution’s requirements) that identify BPAY payments made by your customers. The system can then automatically generate each customer’s unique BPAY reference number based on the reference number format set up. The system uses the customer’s account number as well as the reference number format information to generate a number. This is then processed through a ''Luhn'' algorithm to generate a check digit. This is then appended to produce the customer’s unique BPAY reference number.

| − | ==The BPAY Payment Process==
| + | [[file:new_home_sm.jpg|900px]] |
| − | | |
| − | The life cycle of the BPAY payment process is as follows:
| |
| − | | |
| − | # An invoice is received by a customer. The invoice contains the BPAY biller code and customer’s system-generated BPAY reference number.
| |
| − | # The primary/billing contact logs into their internet banking website, app or uses phone banking, to make a BPAY payment.
| |
| − | # The customer’s bank or financial institution validates the payment and provides the customer a receipt number.
| |
| − | # The payment information is forwarded from the customer's bank or financial institution to your bank or financial institution. This happens via BPAY.
| |
| − | # Your bank or financial institution forwards a payment information file to you and deposits the funds into your bank account.
| |
| − | # You [[Data_Import/Payments|upload the payment information file into Emersion]] to allocate the payments against your customer accounts.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Service Provider BPAY Settings ==
| |
| − | Service providers need to set up any BPAY biller codes and BPAY reference number formats before they can be used. Mutiple BPAY biller information can be configured.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Nav: '''Admin > Payment Details > Bpay Details'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | The ''BPay Details'' page will show any BPay biller codes being currently in use or have been used previously.
| |
| − | | |
| − | # If you want to modify an existing BPAY biller code, click '''Edit''' in the ''Actions'' column. Otherwise, click the '''Create New Biller Code''' button.
| |
| − | # Enter the BPAY reference number prefix to use when generating your customers’ unique BPAY reference numbers in the ''Reference Number Prefix'' field.
| |
| − | # Enter the length of the BPAY reference number to generate in the ''Reference Number Length'' field.
| |
| − | # If you have multiple BPAY biller codes configured, tick the ''Is Default Biller Code'' check box if you wish the system to use the current biller code as the default biller code (i.e. for all new customer accounts created) You can override the biller code to use for each account individually if required (see below).
| |
| − | # Click the ''Save'' button to save the changes.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''! Important !''' It's important to understand that by setting the BPAY biller code as the global default will not automatically mean the new default BPAY biller code will automatically be used on all future invoices for customers already created. The new global default setting will only apply to new customers created after the change. If you wish for existing customers to also adopt the new biller code you will need to set the BPAY biller code for those customers manually as per the instructions below. If your customer base is the size where this is not practical, you can raise a [[Support_and_help_from_Emersion|Work Request]] with Emersion and we will provide you a quote for the work.
