How to create a manual payment button on the Persons Account tab

Salesforce.com does not currently allow for Buttons to be packaged for Person Accounts. Administrators therefore need to create their own.

Quick steps:

  1. Add a new button called "Manual Payments" to the Account buttons and links. Use the URL value of /apex/AAkPay__manualPayment?aId={!Account.Id}&MailingStreet={!Account.PersonMailingStreet}&MailingState={!Account.PersonMailingState}&MailingCity={!Account.PersonMailingCity}&MailingPostalCode={!Account.PersonMailingPostalCode}&MailingCountry={!Account.PersonMailingCountry}&Phone={!Account.Phone}&firstName={!Account.FirstName}&LastName={!Account.LastName}&MobilePhone={!Account.PersonMobilePhone}&Phone={!Account.Phone}&Email={!Account.PersonEmail}
  2. Add new button to the Person Account Page Layout
 

3. Fill in the details for the new button

  1. Create a Label for your new button. This will automatically be the Name
  2. Select 'Detail Page Link' for Display Type
