6.1.4 Payment Cloning
This topic describes the systematic instruction to Payment Cloning screen.
The Repeat feature available on the Outgoing Payments summary screen allows user to clone a payment. This is to make it convenient for the end user to initiate the same payment again, on a different date. The cloning does not intend to stop the user from changing any of the data. Therefore, it is just another Ad hoc Payment transaction, and the user will be able to change any fields he wants to.
For a Self-Transfer that was initiated from OBDX and visible in Payment Status Inquiry, clicking on the Clone button will open the Make Payment – Within Bank page. This is because, from the bank’s perspective both Self Transfer and Within Bank Transfer are payments between accounts within the bank.
The payments seen in Outgoing Payments are a combination of all payments posted to the back-end payments processor. The payments could have originated from other channels too, or directly from the payment’s processor itself. And therefore, to repeat/copy the same payment later, OBDX makes use of the Make Payments for New Payee transaction since the payee information may not be present within OBDX as a payee.
