REPAY Payables: Version 295
Release Date: December 13, 2023
This release updates how payments to new vendors are handled, addresses bugs, and includes internal security updates.
The payment processing enhancements give Payment Specialists new tools to manage individual payments and help ensure that vendors are paid as quickly as possible. A key improvement is that when a new vendor is included in a payment group, only the payment for that vendor is paused. Previously, the entire group was paused and all payments were held briefly until the new vendor was enrolled and Payment Specialists confirmed their payment preference.
Release Notes
Customer-Facing Updates and Fixes
| Ticket | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| CPAY-5878 | Feature | Payments for new vendors. There is a new payment status, Paused. When you see this payment status in the REPAY Payables Portal or your ERP, it means the vendor is being added to our system and Payment Specialists are confirming how they'd like to be paid. When paused, a payment no longer defaults to Check. Previously, the first payment sent to a newly enrolled vendor was a check. |
| CPAY-3623 | Fix | User Maintenance > Edit User. The First Name and Last Name fields accepted special characters. Now, special characters are rejected and an error is displayed. |
| CPAY-3782 | Fix | Payments > Upload Payment File. The internal process for standardizing abbreviations and common words in vendor names and addresses worked in reverse. For example, INC was changed to INCORPORATED; LLC to L.L.C. This prevented customers from updating vendor names and addresses. |
| CPAY-4051 | Fix | Payments > Search Payments sometimes displayed the following error.DataTables warning: table id=paymentSearchDatatable - Invalid JSON response. |
| CPAY-4607 | Fix | Setup > Webhooks > Debugger. If you didn't complete the fields correctly, the debugger displayed the error undefined instead of providing a more specific error message. |
| CPAY-5069 | Fix | Fixed a typo on the electronic payment advice document. |
| CPAY-5224 | Fix | CDK Global. Updated limits to prevent errors when retrieving large numbers of invoices. REPAY Payables can now handle input files up to 1 MB. |
| Multiple | Fix | Internal security fixes and updates to third-party libraries. |
Internal Updates (for REPAY Personnel)
| Ticket | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| CPAY-5878 | Feature | You can view paused payments (and associated invoices) from the Paused Groups screen and the new Paused Payments screen, and search for them using Search Payments. |
| CPAY-4466 | Feature | The Paused Groups screen now shows whether all vendors in a group are enrolled. When enrolled is No, click the payment group link to see which vendors' payments are paused. |
| CPAY-4523, CPAY-4537 | Feature | Payments > Paused Payments. The new Paused Payments screen shows all payments that are currently paused. |
| CPAY-4527, CPAY-4579 | Feature | Payment Specialists can manually release an individual payment – “unpause” it. They can also select multiple payments to release (“bulk unpause”). On the Paused Payments screen or payment search results, click Actions and select Unpause. Unpausing doesn’t check whether the vendor is enrolled. If you unpause a payment before the vendor is enrolled, the payment will be released as a check. |
| CPAY-4528 | Feature | Payments > Search Payments. You can now search for paused payments and then unpause them. To search for paused payments, select More Search Options and select the Paused payment status. In the search results, click Actions and select Unpause.  |

| CPAY-5049, CPAY-5313 | Feature | Ongoing work to support the internal data mapping tool used to define file mapping templates for importing and exporting data to and from REPAY Payables. |
| CPAY-1973, CPAY-3630 | Fix | Setup > Organization. Issues:
|
| CPAY-5046 | Fix | If the Salesforce sync job detects an error in a vendor record, an error email is sent to the REPAY Payables administrator mailbox. |
| CPAY-5218, CPAY-5228 | Fix | Setup > Account Setup. Issues:
|
| CPAY-5261 | Fix | Setup > Customer > Edit Customer. If you changed the Customer ID, a duplicate customer record was created with the new ID. The Customer ID is now read-only and cannot be changed. |
| CPAY-5325 | Fix | Payments > RAPs. Payment Specialists couldn't access their assigned RAPs when their User Status was set to Change Pass. Updated the status of affected users to Active. |
