    Note: To track payments at the service provider, a system administration configuration (SAC) needs to be set to take the overpayment at the service provider and not the billing provider. Ideally when using this option, the billing provider shouldn’t have overpayments. Contact your Bridgeway representative to set or change SAC (System Administration Control) settings. Don't change SACs without first consulting Bridgeway as changing them can affect other functions and global system settings. To apply overpayments at the billing provider level for only specific billing providers, see Update billing provider details, comments, and alerts
