Creating a periodic payment order

 

This function is not part of the standard scope of the application.

Explanation

For periodic payment orders, you specify an execution date and an execution interval in addition to the payment order data. The saved periodic payment orders appear in the overview mask and as a task on the authorised user's start page. The generated periodic orders must be signed by the authorised user.

For periodic orders the administrator can define lead days for each business transaction customer-wide. The lead days determine how many days before the execution date the payment order is generated and displayed in the overview mask of the respective payment type as well as a task on the authorised user's start page. You can view the defined lead days via Settings ➔ Customer settings, tab Basic data.

You can create the following periodic payment orders:

Credit transfer

Debit

Cross-border remittance

A periodic payment order corresponds in large part to a payment order (called a standard payment order in this section for better distinction). This section only describes the special features of creating a periodic order as opposed to a standard payment order.

Information on how to create a standard payment order can be found in the section Creating a payment order.
