• Configurable Payment Retry has two additional statuses available for use when retrying payments at the invoice level: Complete and Complete - External. The addition of these two statuses does not impact any historical data. The full list of available statuses and their descriptions are listed below.
  Invoice Retry status can have five different options which are updated by the Configurable Payment Retry feature: 
  1. In Retry - An 'In Retry' status indicates the invoice is actively in the retry process. Navigate to the last payment made on the invoice for further information on the customer group and retry attempt number. 
  2. Complete - The rety cycle has concluded due to a successful payment. 
  3. Complete - External - The retry cycle has concluded and payment was made from an outside source (i.e. ad-hoc payment).
     When a payment is collected from an outside source, the response status will be updated the next time retry logic is executed. 
  4. Failure - The retry cycle has concluded and no payment was obrtained. 
  5. Blank - Invoice is not in retry status.
