If you want online payments to be available, you must add the Payment Checkout feature to a page in your Campus Portal. If this feature is not added, the Make payment and Pay Ahead buttons will be inactive.

The Payment Checkout feature enables the launch out to Authorize.Net for online payments. While this feature cannot be used alone, it is required for the My Financial Accounts, Payment Plan, and Student Home Page features if you want students to be able to make payments through the JICS Campus Portal.

Jenzabar recommends the Payment Checkout feature is added to its own page within the same tab as the My Financial Accounts, Payment Plan, and Student Home Page features.

While the Payment Checkout feature must be added to a page, users will not be able to make payments directly from the page. Instead, if a user accesses the Payment Checkout page directly from the navigation, they will see a note that the portlet can only be accessed from the My Financial Accounts or Payment Plan portlets.
