Service Users – Allows the configuration of the various users on whose behalf submissions will be transmitted to Bacs. The view contains a list of service users currently in the system, and provides the ability to add/edit the service user name, number and bank details. This area must be configured before using the SmarterPay client application.

System Users – Configures the various users that may log onto to SmarterPay. This section also provides support for grouped privileges. Users may be added to groups, in much the same way as with a Windows user and groups environment, in order to restrict the functions that they can perform. This section allows a new user to be created and associated with a smart card (which they will subsequently use to log onto the Bacs system). This area must be configured before using the Submissions application.

File Formats – Allows you to create and manage file formats that are used to import data into the SmarterPay software. You must define a file format for each back office system from which you will import data. The only exception to this is the Standard 18 format, which has already been defined for you internally.

Back Office – Allows the user to configure a number of different back office systems from which payment files will be imported. Each system may have one or more monitor directories set up. For each monitor directory, a file pattern may be supplied. This area may be left with its default configuration settings, depending on how you want your system to work.

HSM Profiles - Allows you to configure a profile, consisting of an HSM (Hardware Security Module) and a certificate on that device, for use in signing operations.

Email Alerts - Allows you to configure settings to be used for sending email alerts to certain users when specific actions within SmarterPay occur.

EISCD Updates - Allows you to manage updates/settings for the EISCD database which validates account numbers and sort codes within your submissions.
