What Is Pre-Payment Processing

Pre-Payment Processing is the first process that starts moving orders through the system. Typically, it is recommended to run pre-payment processing after Inventory Sync and Continuity Processing and before creating Payment Batches. The purpose of pre-payment processing is to move items on open orders into the next available status.
