Integrated Payments Help

This section allows you  to view batch payment summaries of all accessible Payment Services and Service Groups (based on privileges) for any received originating payment files and to Approve, Submit, Delete, Disable and Enable pending payments in one or more received payment files.

The ‘Integrated Payments File Summary’ is a way to simultaneously view multiple files and batches that have been sent to the Bank. Rather than viewing payments by Service Group and Status using the Pending Payments page, this view allows payments to be viewed by Batch and File, regardless of status or Service Group. Managing information at this level allows for accurate and efficient decision-making and confirms the status of files and batches delivered to the Bank for processing.

Each file is clearly separated from other files to display the total number of payments included. The underlying Batches within the files can be viewed by clicking on the triangle icon in the File ID column. This will display all the batches contained in the file.

Users have the following options available on this page:

• Search: you can filter search results by Service Group, File ID or File Date.
• Reset: to clear the search criteria, click on the Reset button.
• View File details: by clicking the links in the File ID column you can view the details of the files.
• View Batch details: by clicking the links in the Pending, Complete or Total columns you can view the details of the batches.
• Manage Batch File or Payment Files:  select the appropriate checkbox(es) located beside the Batch or File you want to action and then choose an action (Approve, Delete, Disable, Enable or Submit) from the drop down list at the bottom right of the page. An entire file can be processed this way, as well as selected batches from within a file.

1. After setting your search filters and clicking on the ”Search” button the Search Results will be display at the lower portion of the page, sorted by Current Date (default) or the criteria that you specified.
2. By clicking on a number in the File ID, Pending, Complete or Total columns of a received file or batch you can access the list of payments of that type in that file/batch and action them or click on the “Cancel” button to return.
