Processing Future Dated Auto Pay Payment (Batch)

Pathway: Accounting > Billing


This article details processing auto pay payments for a future date using the Billing tool. Scheduled auto pays display in Accounting > AR Payment Batch for future processing.

Note: If a payment is made between the invoice date and the scheduled autopay date, the autopay will still process for the full amount, and the over-payment will be applied as a credit to the customer's account.


Batch must be posted BEFORE Process Auto Pay can be run.
