When we received a payment notification from the customer, please follow this process for ticket handling:
1. Categorize the ticket to Finance Payment Remittance. This will automatically generate a task to Finance Team.
2. Get the payment reference number from the email of the customer and add it on the invoice.
3. Acknowledge the email by using the template Payment - Bank Transfer Acknowledgement and educate the customer that they can add the payment reference in TH.
4. Close the ticket.
Note: This is very important, for a pending booking to not be automatically cancelled by the system.
