Supported payment operations
Modernized Zuora Payments supports payment operations that collect money, adjust completed activity, and keep transaction records current.
A payment is the business-level record of a transaction. A single payment can include multiple underlying processing events, and the final outcome of the payment reflects the outcomes of those events.
