Connection to BillPay
BillPay's connection to Xentral is available. It allows you to correctly display your BillPay in Xentral.
Please note that BillPay takes over your receivables in their entirety, thus protecting you against the risk of non-payment. Therefore, BillPay is the payee and requires that the payment data of BillPay itself is be deposited on the invoices. These will automatically be the API, you do not have to store them in Xentral.
Note: This is a legacy module that is no longer supported or developed by Xentral. In order to allow our customers to continue working with the existing functionality, it is still available in the Xentral App Store.

Settings in Xentral

Create one for BillPay.
Set the correct "Billpay" module here. Make sure that designations in the field "Type" should not exist twice in your system. So if you need to create several payment methods with the BillPay module, assign different type names, for example type names, e.g. "billpay1" and "billpay2".
Here you can also store your BillPay access data:

As soon as an order processed via BillPay comes in via the store interface, the special payment text received from BillPay is used and saved by API.
