The EFT-External method assumes that you are processing your ACH payments outside of Gym Assistant. For example you might setup recurring transactions with your bank to continue until the member cancels his membership. With this method Gym Assistant allows you to record all of the transactions at one time.
The Process Payments button will not do anything, but you will need to hit Record Payments to record that the payments have been made.
You must click Record Payments to mark the members as paid in Gym Assistant.
There are two strategies for recording ACH payments:
•Wait until you receive any returns before recording the payments (record payments only for payments that were cleared by your bank), or …
•Record all payments now and then reverse any rejected payments later.
