Payment Types

The Payment Types page (System Management > Payment Types) allows administrators to manage Payment Types within Temenos Infinity as they relate to promise to pay. When a user runs the promise to pay workflow step on a person/account, they are presented with a Payment method drop-down, which is controlled by the Payment Types configured in this page.

While this topic has been updated to reflect the new Temenos Infinity branding, Lifecycle Management Suite will continue to appear in the instructions for this page until such a time that the branding can be updated.

The following columns display on the Payment Types page:

Column Name	Description
Code	Displays the assigned code of the payment type.
Description	Displays the description of the payment type.
Active	If checked, the payment type is active and available to users.
System	If checked, the payment type is labeled as “System.” Any system payment types cannot be deleted or completely edited. Only the promise delay can be changed.
Promise Delay	Indicates the promise delay, in days, for the payment type.

From this page, administrators can perform the following actions:
