Stop pay records

Stop pay records are defined for a specific participant and account number. The transaction type and the company ID or name are required fields for the stop pay records. Specify any additional fields as required to narrow the scope of what the stop pay records reject. For example, if no additional information is entered, the stop pay record rejects any transactions of the selected transaction type for the account number and from the specified company.

If a stop pay record is not configured as recurring, only the first transaction matching the stop pay record is rejected. Any subsequent transactions that match the stop payment record are not rejected. If a stop pay record is configured as recurring, all transactions that match the stop pay record are rejected.

The following data fields may be provided when defining stop pay records:
  • transaction type - debit, credit, or any
  • company ID or name
  • payable to
  • serial number
  • amount - specified as a single value or as a range
  • effective date
  • recurring
