DCM supports BPAY payment processing and generates the (CRN) Customer Reference Number on the remittance.
For the Informed Financial Consent (IFC) or other templates the BPAY bookmark is [INVOICE_BPAY]
If you are an existing user of DCM, please request new invoice layouts to include the BPAY logo on the remittances. Changes to transaction layouts may be charged at current hourly rate, where these layouts have previously been approved and now require change.
BPAY is an independent billing product which is used to receive payments from clients. BPAY must be set up by your bank.
If in a group practice, some banks manage all BPAY numbers per entity and deposit funds directly into that entity's bank account that may be with another bank (NAB, WPC)
Other banks insist on the entity opening a bank account with them in order to process BPAY payments (CBA, ANZ)
DCM can facilitate:
- One BPAY Biller Code for the entire business/practice, or
- alternatively, this can be overridden to use a BPAY Biller Code per Entity and per Location.
In order to begin using your DCM BPAY functionality you must register for BPAY with your bank. You will need to provide them with the following information about DCM. DCM uses:
- Luhn Mod 10
- 11-digit number + the check digit (12-digit CRN)
