General

This is the first tab of the edit/add payment type form.

• Payment Type ID – read-only internal unique system ID of the payment type.
• Name – Administrator-assigned nickname for the payment type.
• Description – the description of the payment type, how it will appear on the storefront, in the payment selection section during the checkout.
• Instructions – optional payment instructions, which appear on the storefront during the checkout. They are useful for payments such as check or wire transfer, to let the customer know where and how to send the payment.
• Admin Comments – comments about the payment type visible only to the administrator.
• Enabled – this checkbox enables and disables the payment type.
• Allow Placed Orders Editing – this checkbox, when checked, allows the administrator to edit the billing and payment information of the orders after they have been submitted but not processed. If the box is unchecked, the orders are locked as soon as they are placed. This option is unchecked by default, and it is recommended to keep it that way for any gateway-related payment types.
• Priority – the numeric priority of the payment type that affects the sort order on the storefront.
