Introduction

This report allows users to apply payments for all customers configured as having a credit card on file. The feature is enabled through the Utility Billing General Settings Payments tab and the customers are configured in the Billing Options.

Description

In order for an customer to be updated through this process, the customer's Billing Options must have the "Credit card on file" field checked and a day of the month specified. When this report is run with the update process, all customers configured as having a credit card on file for the day of the month specified will be updated with a payment in the amount of that customer's current balance. If the customer had a 0 balance or a credit, that customer will be ignored during processing. An update number will be assigned and displayed on the screen and report in case a roll back is necessary.
