Note
If On Account (virtual IBANs) payment method is active, the new virtual IABN will be generated and sent from Swan to billwerk on each contract creation with an On Account payment method. Each contract will have its own dedicated virtual IBAN that customer can pay a receivable.Make sure you have completed the Swan onboarding.
Your On Account (virtual IBANs) must be checked in the Activated section, in the Payment Settings.
Go to Customers and select one of the customers from the list.
Select Add Contract button in the Contracts section.
Fill in a new contract via Admin UI. Choose On Account (virtual IBANs) from the Payment method drop-down. Save the contract.
Newly created contract must have a generated virtual IBAN.
Note
Notes:
If IBAN generation fails for any external reasons, contract will not be created at all.
Recurring Payments option is not configurable.
There is no difference in UI for a customer if that is a virtual or a regular On Account payment method. For merchant's Admin UI, it must be distinguishable.
