# Schedules and PAD agreements

> Review recurring EFT schedules and their Pre-Authorized Debit (PAD) agreements in the Dashboard, and cancel a schedule.

Recurring EFTs are organized around two related views: the **schedule** that groups the individual payments, and the **PAD agreement** the payor signs to authorize them. Both are reached from the EFT tabs in the Payments section.

## EFT schedules

A schedule is a higher-level record that links the individual transactions of a recurring EFT. Each schedule has its own ID and lists every payment that belongs to it, so you can see due dates and per-transaction status in one place.

To open a schedule:

1. Go to **EFT Payments**.
2. Select **View/Manage Schedule** on a recurring transaction.

The schedule details show the payor account, amount, frequency, start and end dates, and the list of scheduled payments with their status:

| Status             | Description                                                             |
| :----------------- | :---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Created            | The payment is scheduled and not yet processed                          |
| Executed           | The payment has been processed                                          |
| Partially Executed | One or more payments in the schedule have been processed                |
| Cancelled          | The schedule was cancelled and remaining payments will not be processed |

### Cancelling a schedule

You can cancel a schedule from its details page to stop payments that have not yet been processed:

1. Open the schedule from **EFT Payments**.
2. Select **Cancel Schedule** and confirm.

<Warning>
  Cancelling stops future payments only. Payments that are already processing, sent to the payment provider, or settled cannot be cancelled or reversed. **Cancel Schedule** is unavailable once a schedule is fully Executed or already Cancelled.
</Warning>

## PAD agreements

Every recurring EFT is backed by a Pre-Authorized Debit (PAD) agreement. The payor signs the PAD during the Flinks Pay flow. The Dashboard is for viewing and managing existing agreements: you cannot create or re-sign a PAD from the Dashboard.

To review agreements, go to the **PAD Agreements** tab. Each row shows:

| Column     | Description                              |
| :--------- | :--------------------------------------- |
| Account    | The payor account the agreement debits   |
| Frequency  | How often the payment recurs             |
| Count      | The number of payments in the agreement  |
| Start Date | The first scheduled payment date         |
| End Date   | The last scheduled payment date          |
| Status     | The current agreement status (see below) |

Select **View/Manage PAD** to open an agreement, or **Copy PAD Presentation Link** to share the signed agreement.

### PAD agreement statuses

| Status             | Description                                                            |
| :----------------- | :--------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Pending Acceptance | Waiting for the payor to accept and sign the PAD                       |
| Accepted           | The payor has signed the PAD and Flinks Pay has scheduled the payments |
| Partially Executed | One or more payments have been processed                               |
| Executed           | All payments have been processed                                       |
| Cancelled          | The PAD was cancelled and any remaining payments will not be processed |
| Expired            | The payor did not sign the PAD before the first scheduled payment      |
