How to send out Recurring Payments Card Expiry and Update Notifications

Workflows have been migrated to Flows

From Version 11.1, new Flows have been introduced as a replacement for Workflows, in line with Salesforce’s policies. We recommend using the Flows for all new implementations. 

Equivalent Flows are available with the same names as the workflows (prefixed with “Payments2Us”).

Please note: the Time-Dependent Actions are already included in the new Flows. You do not need to manually configure these actions.

 

This workflow enables your organisation to automatically send out a notification to card holders when their Credit Card is about to Expiry. They can then update their own details online saving you the need to individually contact card holders.

Quick Steps:

  • Clone Workflow rule “Recurring Payment Card Expire [ADD TIME BASED WORKFLOW]" and rename to “Recurring Payment Card Expire”
  • Add a Time-Dependant Action. Set it to fire 1 hour after Rule Trigger date.
  • Add Action – Use existing workflow – “Field Update: set Status Payment Start”
 

Notes on key Recurring Payment fields:

  • The Expiry Date is set with the last date in the month for value in field Expiry MMYYYY.
  • The Expiry Checkbox Reminder is set by a trigger when today's date is greater than or equals to Expiry Date – 31 days
