Adding Payments to Applications
Submitting payments for applications can be done on the application actions page. This article will detail how to add payments for online applications in ExactEstate.
There are two ways to navigate to the payment screen for applications.
- Through the Application Actions page
- Through the Application Dashboard page
Before covering how to add application payments, we'll cover the two navigation routes to get the payment pages.
Through the Application Actions page
At the top of the page will be a ribbon of actions you can take. Select 'View Payments' from this screen.
Through the Application Dashboard
You are able to navigate directly to the payment page for applications (provided you have the permissions allowing you to do so).
Adding Payments to An Application
When you have navigated to the application ledger, select the "Add Payment" link found at the top right of the page.
Selecting this will bring up the payment options modal. There are two types of payments you can make:
- Merchant Payment: These payments will be processed online by the assigned merchant account for the property.
- Other Payment: These payments will be processed online by the assigned merchant account for the property.
