If you have enrolled in SIP, the SPECIAL tab is where you will set up your SIP (Secure Instant Payment) account information, to work with School Lunch.
For SIP to run within School Lunch, you will need the following information. This information will be provided to you by SIP, once your application for their service has been excepted.
Merchant Code: A long alpha-numeric code used to access your SIP account, provided by Secure Instant Payments.
Other items within this tab include:
Last SIP Deposit: Last SIP deposit is the date when the last SIP deposit was posted. Being able to change this date will allow you to go back and make sure all deposits have been posted. Normally you will never need to change this date. To help determine if this is necessary, please contact Rodlan directly for more information.
Auto Check SIP Deposits: When selected, SL will check for SIP deposits approximately every 15 minutes. When deposits are available, the number on the SIP DEPOSITS button in the Command Center, will increment showing how many deposits are available to record. You can always leave it unchecked and just try the button once a day. When you press the SIP DEPOSITS button, the deposit window will open and show un-posted SIP deposits. You need to run that deposit separately with no other deposits. It will automatically do that.
