To enable the 'Authenticate with NatWest' option, you'll need to enable Third Party Provider Payments privileges for your company members (called Users in Bankline) who will make payments with Apron.
The process is similar for Natwest, Royal Bank of Scotland and Ulster Bank.
You'll need to set up a new role in Bankline and assign that role to the users who will be authorising payments.
Step 1: Create a New Role with Third Party Payments Privileges.
From the Administration menu, select 'Manage Role'. Then click 'Create Role' on the bottom-right corner of the screen.
On the 'Create Role' screen:
1. Enter a name and description in the dedicated fields, e.g. 'TPP Privileges'.
2. At the bottom, you can use the drop-down menu to display privileges by category. Select 'Third Party Provider consents' and click 'Save & go'.
3. Tick all of the boxes on the next screen and click 'Save & go'.
4. On the next screen, tick all of the boxes, change the privileges type in drop-down to 'Third Party Provider payments' and click 'Save & go'.
5. Tick all of the boxes on the next screen and click 'Save & go'.
6. After that, tick all of the boxes and click 'Continue' to go to the next screen.
7. Select the accounts you would like to use for payments with Apron, and click 'Continue'.
8. On the next screen, click 'Confirm new role'.
Step 2: Assign this role to users who will be initiating payments in Apron.
Go to 'Manage Users' and select the user you would like to activate this role for.
In the 'Edit User' menu, scroll down to the bottom and click 'Edit roles'.
On the 'Edit roles' screen, select the new role you would like to activate for this user and click Continue.
On the next screen, click 'Confirm changes' on the bottom-right corner of the screen.
You will be prompted to authenticate the change with your smartcard. Click on 'Authenticating the action with your Smartcard' and go through the Smartcard authorisation process.
The process is now complete! You can now authenticate payments with NatWest in Apron.
