Field Name
Description
Status Select a payment method status:
  • Unchecked. A payment method is active and available for payments, but it was just saved in Parallels Business Automation - Standard database and no successful transactions were yet performed using this payment method. After a successful transaction the Unchecked payment method status automatically becomes OK.
  • OK. A payment method is active and available for transactions. At least one successful transaction has been performed using this account.
  • Disabled. A payment method is temporarily not available for payments. A payment method can be disabled either manually, by editing its profile or automatically, if a transaction has been declined by a payment gateway and the option Disable the Payment Method if the processing center declines the transaction is enabled in the Commerce Director > Payment Processing > Secure Storage > General Settings.
  • Expired. A payment method is not available for payments since its registration period has expired. This status can be assigned by Provider only manually.
  • Error. A payment method is unavailable for payments since its data is incorrect or Provider suspects that a payment method data can be incorrect. In this case, Provider manually assigns the Error status to a payment method.
Allow payment by this payment method To allow using the payment method for payments, check this box. This setting makes sense only for Unchecked or OK statuses of a payment method (in this case, you can temporarily suspend payments by a payment method by clearing this box). In other statuses payments using a payment method are not allowed in any case, without respect to this setting.
Use this payment method for recurring payments To use the payment method for recurring payments, check this box. If a payment method is used for recurring billing, it is automatically selected as a payment method for recurring payments like automatically generated renewal orders, for example. Parallels Business Automation - Standard automatically selects for recurring payments the first payment method found in database that has the OK status and allowed for payments.
Customer IP You can optionally enter a customer host IP address. If a customer pays using this payment method an IP address is detected automatically.
