Version: 5.1
Patch: 302
Title: External Accounts
Application Category: 
Patch Type: Feature

Description:

Added a new feature which allows payment processing accounts to be configured as "external accounts". These accounts
will not processed in OLX, but items can be added to batches when refunding (or processing RMA's) as an alterative to the
default associated account for the item. This allows credits to be handled by external means... such a a "paper check", while
allowing the item to still be marked refunded/paid in the application.
