We recommend notifying your suppliers of this change in payments so that CSI's email isn't mistaken for phishing or spam. See the Pre-setup checklist for a template to help you get started.

Automatically enable all suppliers

You can enable suppliers in bulk and any time a new supplier is added.

• Enable all suppliers for service: This option mass shares all existing supplier information with CSI and enables them for payments.

• Automatically enable new suppliers: This option automatically enables and shares any new suppliers that you add in the future.

After suppliers are enabled for the service, they receive a welcome email from CSI with a link to register and select their payment preferences. CSI copies you in this email.

CSI sends you a confirmation email after the supplier registers for their preferred payment method. If a supplier registers for ACH payments, CSI sends this email after the ACH penny test is successfully completed.
