Online Payment Administration
Important
Information and features vary according to the roles to which you belong and the permissions associated with those roles. For more information, contact your module manager or your campus support team.
The Online Payment Administration feature allows you to configure the Campus Portal so that it can accept payments from constituents like Students, Donors, Candidates, etc.
Note
If your organization does not have an account with Authorize.Net, it must be established. Authorize.Net is currently the only third-party software provider that interfaces with the Campus Portal automatically.
Tip
Using the hosted payment option will help reduce the scope of work required when going through a PCI Self-Assessment Questionnaire. The hosted option will display a form from Authorize.Net within the Campus Portal where users can enter their payment information. With all cardholder information being entered in an Authorize.Net form that cannot be accessed by the Campus Portal, the questions of storing, processing, or transmitting cardholder data within Jenzabar or the Campus Portal are relieved. For more information, see PCI Self-Assessment Questionnaire A or A-EP.
Warning
An interface with CashNet is available through the Jenzabar Services team, but does not automatically connect with the Campus Portal.
Danger
With EX 7.4.1 or J1 2020.2 (and above), we are now integrating a payment form from Authorize.Net. Customers with certain content security policies or custom “response headers” cannot load the form. Please see the Troubleshooting section for details on how to test and update your form.
Setting Up Online Payment Administration
Use the following list as a guide to help you configure Online Payments
Enter the transaction code (AR Receipt code) to be used to record online payments in the Business Office.
Verify or establish how Accounts Receivable will handle online payments.
Verify or allow select JICS role(s) to administer payment configurations.
Determine how online gifts and other payments can be made and how they will be authorized via the Campus Portal.
Determine and configure the types of credit cards that can be accepted when a user makes an online payment.
Set up payment, payment method, and payment completion messages.
Preview & test payment form from the Online Payment Administration portlet.
Tip
If the form cannot load, see the Troubleshooting section.
Log on to Authorize.Net and configure your account settings.
Note
Additional settings are required if you use the hosted option. For more information, see the Defining Online Payment Settings below.
Once payments are made, log on to Authorize.Net to verify online payments.
Access the A/R Configuration window in J1 Desktop.
In the Online Configuration Items section, select the credit card processor to be used for online payments from the Processor drop-down. Jenzabar automatically provides several online credit card processors along with the authorization codes; however, your organization can choose to use your own processor. Be sure your organization has established an account with the processor in order to generate credit card authorizations.
From the Online Payment Receipt Group drop-down options, select the printer to be used. This determines the next receipt group number to be used for the online gift/payment.
If you want unapplied financial aid, unapplied student charges, or unposted/suspended items to appear on student accounts select the Display Preliminary Financial Aid Online?, Display Preliminary Charges Online?, and Display Unposted Items Online? checkboxes.
In the Course and Fee Statement section:
Note
This setup is needed only if you are using the My Account Info portlet. If your school is using the new Payment Plan and My Financial Accounts functionality you do not need this step.
Select the Bill Remaining Balance checkbox if the student's entire balance that is due for the payment plan will be shown on the statement. If you clear this checkbox, the next amount due as part of the payment plan will be shown on the statement.
Select the Use Period End Month for Payment Plan Month checkbox if you want the month from the period end date on the Subsidiary Control to be used to determine what payment plan transactions and balances will be displayed on the Course and Fee Statement generated in CRM Student. If you do not select this checkbox, you must enter a month in the Payment Plan Month column.
The Payment Plan Month column is only available if you did not select the Use Period End Month for Payment Plan Month checkbox. Enter the number of the month to be used for the Payment Plan.
Click the Save button.
Access the Receipt Code Control window in J1 Desktop.
Right-click and choose Add Row. A new row appears.
In the Code column, enter the (Transaction) Code to be used to record fees in Business Office. This code is needed to record the gift/pledge in the proper General Ledger accounts.

If applicable, select the appropriate Subsidiary Code from the drop-down options.
If applicable, select the appropriate 1098-T Eligibility code from the drop-down options.
If applicable, enter the General Ledger number for the credit or debit amount of the receipt in the Target Account Number column.

After users successfully make a payment on the Authorize.Net hosted payment site, they will be provided with a link that will return them to a predetermined payment complete/incomplete page specific to the portlet.
Because the Campus Portal will not know if the payment/donation on the Authorize.Net website was successful, these message pages will need to be updated for the following portlets:

Troubleshooting the Authorize.Net Hosted Form
Note
This section is for the Authorize.Net "hosted" option for JICS Campus Portal online payments.
Danger
With EX 7.4.1 or J1 2020.2 (and above), we are now integrating a payment form from Authorize.Net. Customers with certain content security policies or custom “response headers” cannot load the form.
Jenzabar online payments are now integrated with Authorize.Net. JICS Administrators should test their online payment form following the steps below.
Log into the Campus Portal as an administrative user.
Navigate to the Payment Administration feature. The Payment Administration feature is displayed.
From the Payment Administration feature, click Click here to administer the Payments Portlet. The Payment Administration page appears.
Click th Preview & test payment form link.
If the payment form preview works and the form test succeds, no further editing of the form is necessary.
If the payment form preview does not load, continue with the steps below.
If the form loads but appears disabled behind a spinner indicator, it is likely that you have a “Response Header” or Content Security Policy (CSP) in place. Check by opening the Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager on your JICS server.
Navigate to the ICS application and select the folder.
In the pane on the right, double-click the HTTP Response Headers option. You may see one of two possible values:
Note
If you see either setting, it is preventing the Authorize.Net payment form from loading.
Replace with a Content-Security-Policy value of
frame-ancestors 'self' https://*.authorize.net. This setting will continue to protect your server, but it will allow forms only from Authorize.Net.
Note
If the Entry Type is Inherited , it means that the setting is most likely defined at the Default Web Site level and you will need to make your change there. Alternatively, you could change the web.config file instead of using the IIS Manager interface.
The new payment form in EX 7.4.1 and J1 2020.2 does not require Authorize.Net to “post back” to the JICS server. You can remove the Silent Post URL value that is configured in your Authorize.Net account. This will stop any error messages in the ICSNET event viewer log caused by unnecessary post-backs from Authorize.Net.
