It is optimized for Internet Explorer, version 6.0 and higher. PostFinance recommends installing Adobe PDF Reader as a plug-in and activating Javascript in the browser settings. The following functions are available via the business interface: Biller Bill recipient View master data View master data Upload bills/credits Download signed bills/credits Search for bills Register/cancel with biller Download signed bills/credits Download registration and cancellation data Download processing records In order to use the business interface (w ww.yellowbill.postfinance.ch), users have to log in (default) with their username and password for identification and authentication purposes. Upon request a cancellation list can be requested for identification. These security elements are sent to users by PostFinance before they start using the service. The business interface is designed to be client-compatible, i. e. it is possible to process several EBill AccountID or BillerID numbers for each login.
