Auto decision exceptions

By default, positive pay records that have not been either rejected or accepted cause the close of day process to be held up. The auto decision exceptions process uses configuration information from the participant to automatically take an action, or make a decision, for all of the unmatched positive pay items for that participant. Participants can be configured to either reject or accept all of the payments. In addition, they can be configured to move the positive pay item to the next business day, which retains the unmatched state. For more information about the positive pay auto decision configuration, see Receiving Point Attributes Pages.

Auto decision exceptions is run manually by selecting Auto Decision Exceptions from the selection menu for the business day on the manage the business days page. Typically, it should be run at the close of a business day. However, because a menu option is used to run auto decision exceptions, the user has greater flexibility when deciding when and how often they want to run the auto decision exceptions process. Auto decision exceptions can be executed many times throughout the day without having to perform the full end of day processing.

Auto decision exceptions does not run automatically when the business day is closed.
