Help for this Step

On this step, you will create attributes of the schedule as well as enter the amount of the scheduled payment request along with optional remittance data.

·.      Schedule attributes include a Schedule Name, Schedule Status, Bank Relationship, the number of business days prior to settlement that the request is initiated, and Settlement Dates.

·.      Settlement Dates can be scheduled on a recurring basis or specified manually. A Payment Schedule can be set for up to 12 months.

·.      The amount of the scheduled payment request is the same every time it is initiated. Indicate the Amount Requested for the ASAP.gov Account or Account Details

·.      If you have a list of Settlement dates that already appear on this page and you want to define a different schedule, it is advisable to remove all dates before defining a new recurring schedule. If you do not remove the dates and you define more dates, the new dates will not overwrite the old ones. For example, if your original schedule is defined as every two weeks on Tuesday and you create a new schedule for every two weeks on Wednesday, without removing the old dates, your payment request will initiate every two weeks on Tuesday and on Wednesday.

Step 4 - Payment Request Schedule Confirmation
