Subject: ECF: Arizona's Payment Information Flow


ECF TC,

 

Payment processing was a recent topic of conversation during our most recent conference call.  For your consideration, the following is a high-level overview of a clerk-accepted, payment-eligible e-filed submission in Arizona.  Hope this helps in today’s F2F proceedings.

 

Regards,

 

Jim

Terms:

  1. Filing Fee = Statutory fee
  2. Application Fee = E-Filing System service fee (based on a percentage of the Filing Fee)
  3. Payment Fee = Payment Provider’s service fee (based on a percentage of the combined Filing Fee and Application Fee)
  4. Payment Provider = Online service provider is responsible for transferring funds between bank accounts and calculating the Submission Fee
  5. Payment Authorization Request = Request to Payment Provider seeking payment authorization
  6. Payment Authorization Number = A unique payment transaction ID assigned by the Payment Provider
  7. Payment Capture Request = Request to transfer customer’s bank account funds to the Court, the Arizona AOC, Payment Provider, and, if a refund applies back to the customer
  8. Total Submission Fee = Combined total of Filing Fee, Application Fee, and Payment Fee

 

Payment Flow Overview:

  1. Payment Authorization
    1. FAMDE submits request to Payment Provider for Submission Fee authorization
    2. Payment Provider calculates Payment Fee based on Filing Fee and Application Fee
    3. If approved, Payment Provider sends a Payment Authorization Number, original Filing Fee, original Application Fee, Payment Provider-calculated Payment Fee, and Payment Provider-calculated Total Submission Fee to FAMDE  NOTE:  Payment Provider is responsible for performing all fee calculations
  2. Filing Assembly (FAMDE)
    1. FAMDE generates RvFR that includes the Payment Provider’s Payment Authorization Number
    2. FAMDE transmits RvFR to Filing Review (EFM)
  3. Filing Review (EFM)
    1. Filing Review (EFM) ensures RvFR is well-formed and valid
    2. Filing Review (EFM) provides a unique SubmissionID to include with the RvFR (aka RvFR “Prime”)    NOTE: Added SubmissionID for other ECF TC conversation
    3. Filing Review (EFM) generates RvFR “Prime” message, which includes original Filing Fee, original Application Fee, Payment Provider-calculated Payment Fee, and Payment Provider-calculated Total Submission Fee
    4. Filing Review (EFM) transmits RvFR “Prime” message to FRMDE (Clerk Review)
  4. Filing Review (Clerk Review)
    1. Clerk changes a document type, which causes the Filing Fee to be equal to or less than the Filing Fee amount originally authorized by Payment Provider  NOTE:  At present, if the changed payment amount is greater than the original payment authorization amount, the clerk will reject the submission
    2. Clerk accepts and requests that the RvFR “Prime” be filed (aka docketed)
    3. FRMDE generates RFR, which includes clerk-changed Filing Fee and original Application Fee, Payment Provider-calculated Payment Fee, and Payment Provider-calculated Total Submission Fee   NOTE:  No “payment change” indicator/flag is used
    4. FRMDE transmits RFR to CRMDE
  5. Court Record
    1. CRMDE records RFR without error
    2. CRMDE generates NDC, which includes the clerk-changed Filing Fee, original Application Fee, Payment Provider-calculated Payment Fee, and Payment Provider-calculated Total Submission Fee   NOTE:  No “payment change” indicator/flag is used
    3. CRMDE transmits NDC to Filing Review (EFM)
  6. Payment Capture
    1. Filing Review (EFM) transmits Payment Capture Request, which includes clerk-changed Filing Fee, original Application Fee, Payment Provider-calculated Payment Fee, and Payment Provider-calculated Total Submission Fee
    2. Payment Provider re-calculates the Payment Fee based on the clerk-changed Filing Fee
    3. Payment Provider transfers funds from customer’s bank account to the Court, AOC, Payment Provider, and, if applicable, refunds difference to customer
    4. Payment Provider transmits clerk-changed Filing Fee, original Application Fee, re-calculated Payment Fee, and re-calculated Total Submission Fee to the Filing Review (EFM)
    5. Filing Review (EFM) generates NFRC message with the clerk-changed Filing Fee, the original Application Fee, re-calculated Payment Fee, and re-calculated Total Submission Fee  NOTE:  No “payment change” indicator/flag is used
    6. Filing Review (EFM) transmits NFRC message to FAMDE   NOTE:  NDC and NFRC payment information is different!!!
