About the Payments Processing Tab in the Payments Tool

 

Tab Overview

The Payments Settings page lets payors control how the payment processing features work for Procore Pay. To get there, a Payments Admin clicks the Configure Settings icons-settings-gear.png icon in the Payments tool. You'll see two (2) tabs: 'Payment Processing' and 'Payment Requirements.' This guide details sub-pages and controls in the Payments Processing tab. 

Payment Processing Tab

Payments Admins use these sub-pages and their corresponding controls to manage the payment processing settings for your company's Procore Pay environment.

Tab Considerations

 

Before using the Payment Processing tab, it's helpful to understand these considerations as a payor. 

Things to Consider

Add Funding Accounts

  1. Navigate to the Company level Payments tool.
  2. Click the Payments Settings icons-settings-gear.png icon.
    This opens the Payments Settings page. The 'Business Entities' page in the 'Payments Processing' tab is active by default and lists the business entities that pay invoices for your company's Procore Pay software.
  3. Go to the desired business entity and click Add Funding Account.
    This opens the Add Funding Account panel.

    payment-settings-add-funding-account.png
     
  4. In the Add Funding Account panel, do the following:
    1. Nickname. Enter a unique nickname for the account. Nicknames quickly identify the bank account for disbursements while helping to protect the privacy of its account number. 
    2. Business Entity. Shows the name of the current business entity. 
    3. Account Number. Enter the full account number in this field. See Where do I find my routing and account number?
    4. Reenter Account Number. Reenter the full account number in this field. 
    5. Routing Number. Enter the routing number for this account. See Where do I find my routing and account number? 
    6. Account Type. Choose Checking or Savings
    7. Bank ID. Enter a bank identifier. Procore uses the bank ID as a prefix for a payment's check number. You can change this number at any time. However, any new changes only impact new check numbers. 
       Important
      For companies using the icon-erp-synced2.png ERP Integrations tool: The bank identifier must match the funding account's 'Bank ID' in your integrated ERP system. 
    8. Check Number. Enter a check number for the next invoice payment. This provides each check a unique identification number for this account. See How does Procore assign numbers to disbursement payouts? It also helps users who Manage Disbursements to identify transactions. 
       Important

      For companies using the icon-erp-synced2.png ERP Integrations tool:

      • After Procore Pay processes an invoice payment in a disbursement, the 'Bank ID' and 'Check Number' combination is exported to your integrated ERP system. 
      • To avoid potential ERP synchronization errors, ensure the Check Number entered is higher than the last check number in your ERP system to prevent duplication in your integrated ERP system. See How do payments made in Procore Pay sync with an integrated ERP system?
      • Preview. Verify that the 'Bank ID' and 'Next Check Number' are correct. 
  5. Click Continue
    This launches the account verification steps. 

Get Started with Account Verification

To protect your company's personal and financial information, verification is required. To learn more, see What is a verified bank account in Procore Pay?

  6. On the Bank Account Details page:
  7. On the Congratulations page, click Complete to start verification. 
    Procore Pay adds the funding account to the business entity and updates its status to Pending.  The status does not change until you work with the Payment Operations team to update any required authorizations and perform testing. This helps prevent issues before you use the new account to fund disbursements. Once the account has been successfully tested, the status will be updated to Verified and the new account can be used to create disbursements to send invoice payments.

Add or Remove Payments Admins

Submit a Request to Procore

If you are implementing Procore Pay as a payor, your team attends an alignment call and discusses the requirements to add Payment Admins. If Procore Pay is already live, the authorized signer on your company's transaction banking agreement must send a request to your Procore point of contact or Contact Support.

When contacting support:

  • Please don't include sensitive financial information, such as routing or bank account numbers. 
  • Please include your name, company name, and inquiry. 

Complete the Procore Pay Authorized Administrator Form

Upon receipt of a request, an authorized Procore Payments Operations team member provides you with the required Procore Pay Authorized Administrator Form. An authorized signer must complete and sign it. This is usually the owner of your company or an executive to whom the owner has granted signature authority. Once signed, return to the form to Procore Payment Operations.

Best Practices

When Procore Pay customers enable the Company level Workflows tool, an authorized team member can create a custom workflow template to approve/reject your disbursements. Your company can create any number of Payments workflow templates. However, only one (1) of those template(s) can be assigned as the default template for Procore Pay. 

1. Create and Configure Your Templates

A Payments Admin or a Payments Disburser follows the steps in Create Disbursements. After selecting the funding account, Procore Pay automatically starts the Payments workflow for the disbursement when the Workflow tool is enabled.

icon-09.svg

If you are assigned to review a disbursement, submit a response before the due date. To learn more, see Approve or Reject a Disbursement

After submitting an 'Approve' response, an Action Required banner prompts the final reviewer to Authorize the disbursement. Funds are only withdrawn after authorization. See Create Disbursements.

You can also Add Additional Assignees when the existing assignees are unavailable. 

 Important
  • Invoice approval and disbursement authorization must be completed by two (2) different Procore users.
  • If you are the Payments Admin or Payments Disburser who placed any of the invoices on the disbursement into the 'Approved' or 'Approved as Noted' status, Procore Pay will not permit you to approve the disbursement.

Example Payments Workflow

This is an example of a Payments workflow that starts automatically when a disbursement is created. You can use this example to create your company's Payments Workflow or you can create your own custom workflow to suit your specific business needs. For step-by-step instructions, see Create a Custom Workflow Template

    Example

    In this tutorial, the details are configured using the example workflow from Best Practices for Creating a Payments Workflow, so you'll need to assign the following roles to perform the steps:

    • A Payments Admin to be the Workflow Manager. A workflow is only considered complete when a Workflow Manager is assigned to it. 
    • A Payments Admin or Disburser to be an Assignee for the Controller Review step. Each unique response step in a workflow requires one or more assignees. When there are multiple assignees on a step, the first response given will move the workflow to the next step. 
    • A Payments Admin or Disburser to be an Assignee for the CFO Review step. Each unique response step in a workflow requires one or more assignees. When there are multiple assignees on a step, the first response given will move the workflow to the next step. 

    If you have created a custom workflow template, the details you configure will be unique to your environment. 

  9. Click the Save button. 
     Tip
    Can I edit the workflow template later?  Yes. You can add or remove steps from your workflow template at a later time. See Edit a Custom Workflow Template. Once editing is complete, you will also need to perform the steps above to re-configure the workflow's details. 

Assign a Default Template

  1. Navigate to the Company level Payments tool. 
  2. Click the Payment Processing tab. 
  3. Click the Workflow Settings link. 
    This opens a list of workflows that have been created for the Payments tool. It also shows the configuration status of each workflow. 
     Tip
    Do you have existing workflows in the Not Configured status? To learn how to configure an existing workflow, see Configure the Settings for a Payments Workflow Template.
  4. In the Default Workflow column, choose the option button that corresponds to the workflow that will be used as the system's default. You can create up to five (5) workflows, but can only assign one (1) default workflow. 
     Tip
    What happens if I change the default workflow? If you decide to change the default workflow, all new disbursements created in the Payments tool will automatically use the new default workflow. Any disbursements that have already started a workflow process will be unaffected by this change.
