                     How to:  | 
            
|---|---|
| 
                     1. Register with a Sage Simply Accounting approved pre-authorized debit service provider.  | 
                
                     For more information about the pre-authorized debit service provider, in the Home window on the Services menu, choose Customer Pre-Authorized Debit.  | 
            
| 
                     2. After your customer authorizes you to collect and process debit payments, enter the pre-authorized debit information in your customer records.  | 
                
                     In each customer record, enter their pre-authorized debit bank account information on the Pre-Authorized Debits tab.  | 
            
| 
                     3. (Optional) You might want to create a separate account to track the pre-authorized debits made to your debit service provider. It makes it easier to reconcile these payments later.  |
