OnlineBill

FR 2835

Use Payment Gateway application for additional payment transactions – When OnlineBill is configured to use Authorize.NetAPI, it uses the PGA for additional transactions.

FR 2837

Export to .csv rather than txt – Initially, when choosing to export content from OnlineBill, the content was exported to csv format. This was changed to txt due to European users concern regarding handling of commas. Encapsulation enhancements alleviate concerns related to embedded commas, so that csv format is the preferred method for all users. The exports will contain double quote encapsulation and comma separators (wrapping the cell in double-quotes (ex. “Hello, World”)).

FR 2838

Cookies warning message – In Europe many countries require a cookies message to be displayed for a user the first time they connect to the site to inform them that cookies are being used to track information about them. OnlineBill now provides the ability to create and enable/disable a cookie warning message.

FR 2843

Ability to not show bill period dates for invoice charges on the Payments and Transactions page – new configuration setting defaults to show dates.
