- Custom Payment Methods can be Active or Inactive.
- You can delete manually created payment methods. If you delete a custom created payment method and it has been previously used in a transaction, the system allows it to be deleted and the transaction that it was used in will just have a blank payment method.
- You can update the Payment Method Name for custom created statuses; however this will change all past transactions that utilize this specific Payment Method.
