Payment plans are linked to instalment billing in Synergetic and allow each Community Portal user to choose their preferred payment method.
Note: For information about configuring and maintaining payment plans, see Configuring and maintaining payment plans in the Synergetic Online payments manual.
Note: Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is required to view the Payment Plans tab. Contact your IT administrator.
You can customise the Payment Plans tab to suit the needs of your organisation using either:
- the Admin Panel
- configuration settings.
Customising the tab using the Admin Panel
Community Portal administrators can customise the tab using the Menu sub-tab of the Online Configuration window. See Online Configuration - Menu sub-tab.
