Enabling a Cash Receipt Category and Distribution for Other Payments in the Portal

There are two (2) areas of the portal an external user can make a miscellaneous payment.

1. Clicking on Pay as Guest on the login page
   
2. After logging in, clicking on Other Payments

Once there, the user will select a Department and a Payment Type.  These terms were changed so that the user can better understand what they are selecting.  

Department = Category

Payment Type = Distribution

1. In Cash Receipting, go to Organization | Categories
   
2. Navigate to the appropriate Category 
   
3. Click on the Distributions tab
   
4. Click on the appropriate Distribution in the list on the left
   
5. Click on Allow online payments
   
6. Repeat these steps to mark additional Distributions as available for online payments
