Client Account Configuration

Configuring One or More Client Accounts

Creating Client Account Record(s)

By generating and configuring the Payology Lite App's Client Accounts, the Salesforce Administrator can determine which financial bank accounts will be used for deposit. Each Client Account is configured within the Check21.com Payment Gateway as a unique path to a corresponding client financial institution and bank account.

Generating a Client Account Record

To begin the Client Account record creation process, the Salesforce Administrator must first navigate to the Client Account navigation item. To do so, please follow these steps:

  1. Click the Apps menu on the top left-side corner of the screen.
  2. In the search field type and click on "Client Accounts".

Once the Salesforce Administrator has arrived on the Client Accounts list view, there are two options.

  1. Automating the creation of the Client Account(s).
  2. Manually creating each Client Account.

To Automate the creation of the Client Account record(s), the Salesforce Administrator must simply click on the "Refresh Client Accounts" button. Please note, prior to clicking on this button, the Administrator must ensure:

  1. The Key Access and Key Content fields in Payment Settings have valid values.
  2. The Client Accounts have been created and accessible in the Check21.com Payment Gateway. Please check with your Check21.com Account Manager for confirmation.

Upon creation, the Salesforce Administrator should update the records by clicking on the record(s) created and setting the Nickname and Default field values. A description of these fields can be found below.

Although it's not advisable, a Salesforce Administrator can create each Client Account manually. To do so, once on the Client Account list view, please click the "New" button on the top right-hand side of the object window and fill all applicable fields found below.
