Setting up ACH payment types

Create an ACH payment type in SA Table Code Value Setup. Then, in Customer Credit Card Setup, associate customer ACH accounts with the ACH payment type.

See Credit card payment types.

See associate customer ACH accounts with the ACH payment type.

Use the SA Table Code Value Setup-Payment Type function to set up an ACH payment type.

  1. Select System Administrator > Setup > Table Code Value.
  2. In Table List, select Payment Type and click Search.
  3. Click New.
  4. In Type, specify a two-digit number. Make sure you specify a number that has not been used. The maximum number of payment types is 99.
  5. In Description, specify a descriptive name for the credit card or change an existing description. For example, ACH.
  6. Click Save.
  7. In the Required section, select an Overpayment Refund Type for this credit card type.

    Use this field to specify how an overpayment should be refunded when processing credit (including credit cards). The list is populated from Payment Type. In most cases, the overpayment refund type will be the same as the initial payment type; for example, CenPOS Visa. However, there may be instances where you want to refund in cash or by check, rather than the initial payment type.

  8. Select a Bank for this credit card type.

    Use this field to select the bank where your credit card deposits will be deposited. You might have all of your deposits go to one bank, or you might have deposits for a specific card, such as American Express, go to a different bank. The list is populated from CR Bank Setup.

  9. Select Payment Type is ACH. If you do not select this option, standard Distribution SX.e tendering occurs.
  10. In the Credit Card section, select the appropriate Processor from the list. This is the processor type set up in SA Credit Card Processor Setup.
  11. Skip the Prompts section. The options are not available because prompts are handled by CenPOS.
  12. In the Additional Information section, in Tendering G/L Account, specify the general ledger account number.

    This specifies the account you previously created that holds all credit card transactions posted during Sales Order Entry-Collect Payment. This transaction is backed out during invoice processing.

    We recommend that you create a separate Tendering G/L Account for credit card tendering.

  13. Select Post to A/R at Invoicing to create an Accounts Receivable transaction for the credit card company.
    • If you select this option, a Credit Card A/R customer number is required. This reverses the original transaction made at tendering, but posts the offset to the A/R account for the credit card customer. The process creates an open Customer Transaction Entry transaction for the credit card customer’s account. This transaction is then processed through normal cash receipts when the cash is received from the credit card company.
    • Clear this option if you want a transaction for the credit card to be posted to Cash at invoicing. The Bank account code set up in Product Warehouse Description Payment Type Setup will be used if a merchant ID is specified below, otherwise the bank account in the Bank field above will be used.
  14. If you selected the Post to A/R at Invoicing option, specify the A/R customer number in Credit Card A/R Account #.
  15. Do not select a Merchant ID. The merchant ID used with CenPOS defaults from the Processor setup, or is set up in Product Warehouse Description Payment Type Setup.
  16. Click Save.
