Pilot instructions
Before you begin, please note:
- Migration is one-way. Once the Collect Amount Open feature is enabled, it cannot be disabled.
- You can only migrate when no payment schedules are running.
To enable the Collect Amount Open feature:
- Agree with FinDock when to activate the feature and for which org(s).
- Check from ProcessingHub that no payment schedule processes are running.
- Go to FinDock Setup and click Processing in the left-hand menu.
- On the Settings tab, under Advanced Settings, toggle on Collect Open Amount.
To test collecting Amount Open:
- Run SEPA DD test collections where some installments have Amount Open great than zero and less than Amount.
- Check the resulting pain.008 files and confirm the
InstdAmt/ Ccyelement in the corresponding entries is equal to Amount Open.
Payment schedules that were run and failed before you switch to Amount Open collection can be retried. However, the retry will use the collection logic.
