Setting up electronic payment (EP) types (BL/DST)

An electronic payment (EP) type is used to represent payment by credit card. You can set up electronic payments to allow customers pay for goods or services through electronic transfer of funds from their accounts to yours.

Details about electronic payments are found elsewhere in the Billing User Guide.
