Customisation

If you need customised mandate references, exclude certain collection dates, or add a custom transaction message to the collection, you want to create a sepa customization extension implementing the following hooks:

• civicrm_create_mandate - to generate custom mandate reference numbers
• civicrm_defer_collection_date - to avoid days when your bank won't accept collections
• civicrm_modify_txmessage - to customize the transaction message

We added an example implementation for your convenience: org.project60.sepacustom
