You can view and maintain the business and user information you've set up for Branch Business Bill Pay. In addition, you may be able to approve users and payment accounts that were added by other authorized users. The administration options vary based on the service plan and your authority level. When you select an option, Branch Business Bill Pay displays the appropriate information so that you can make your changes or additions.

Managing Approvals

When Level 2 Users add new users or payment accounts, the Level 1 User's approval is needed before these changes take effect. If the Level 1 User has approvals pending, one or more approvals sections appear near the top of the Manage Administration Options page.

Level 1 Users, you have the option to approve or reject pending changes. If necessary, you can make changes to user or account information before you click Approve. If you click Reset, any changes you have entered are cleared.

Note: If you select one of the other options on the Manage Administration Options page, the approvals section is hidden. You can see pending approvals again if you select another tab and then select the Administration tab.

The approvals section does not appear unless you have pending approvals.
