Amend or delete a pending ad hoc payment and what to do if the payment can no longer be changed.

Written by Ollie Denning

Amending or deleting an ad hoc payment enables you to make changes before the payment is processed. You can update the amount, revise the due date, or remove a payment that's no longer required. These options are only available when the payment is in Pending status.

šŸ“ŒNote: Ad hoc payments remain as pending until the payment submission deadline has passed. Once the deadline has passed, the payment status changes to Paid and it can no longer be amended or deleted.

šŸ“ŒNote: To amend or delete multiple payments, please see our guide:
​Amend or delete pending ad hoc payments in bulk

Before making any changes, confirm your submission deadline using the Date Calculator. Enter your collection date to check whether the deadline has passed. If you're unsure of your notice period days, these can be found on the left-hand side of Access PaySuite DDCMS under View Client Details.

Unable to amend or delete the payment

If the payment status has changed from Pending, or the pencil and dustbin icons are no longer available, the submission deadline has passed and the payment can't be amended or deleted.

šŸ“ŒNote: Once payments are with Bacs for processing which is one working day before the collection date, files are unable to be withdrawn or amended.

If the payment can no longer be changed, you can:

  • Ask the customer to contact their bank to see if the payment can be returned.

  • Refund the customer once the payment has been successfully collected.
