How to set up a recurring payment restart reminder

This workflow setup is required only if you are using recurring payments. The recurring payments run a scheduler that can be easily started or stopped by an authorised person from the Merchant Facility Tab. This time based workflow creates a reminder in case the processor is stopped and someone forgets to restart it again.

Quick Steps:

  1. Clone Workflow rule "Recurring Payments Restart Reminder [ADD TIME BASED WORKFLOW]" and rename to "Recurring Payments Restart Reminder"
  2. Add a Time-Dependant Action. Set it to fire 1 day after Rule Trigger date.
  3. Add Action - Use existing workflow - "Email Alert: send reminders that Recurring Payments Processor has been stopped…"
  4. Update the recipient of the Email Action "Email Alert: send reminders that Recurring Payments Processor has been stopped…" to be a contact in your organisation that will follow up this email alert.
