Understanding full, partial, and edit registrations in the PaymentWorks platform

In PaymentWorks, there are three types of registrations that your organization may work with:

1. Full Registration
2. Partial Registration
3. Edit Registration

Each type, also referred to as a "request type," serves a different purpose in managing vendor information.

1. Full Registration

• Definition: The initial vendor registration completed by the payee.
• Includes:
  • Payee’s tax information (e.g., EIN or SSN).
  • Company or personal details.
  • Primary and remittance addresses.
  • Responses to payer-specific registration fields.
  • Banking information for ACH or other payment methods.

2. Partial Registration

• Definition: A request submitted by the vendor to add an additional remittance address (or order address, if applicable) to their payee record.
• Key Points:
  • Can only be created by connected payees.
  • Useful for vendors working with multiple remittance addresses for different locations or accounts.

3. Edit Registration

• Definition: A request submitted by the payee to update or overwrite an existing remittance address (or order address, if applicable) previously provided.
• Key Points:
  • Can only be created by connected payees.
  • Helps ensure up-to-date and accurate address information in your records.
