Additional Notes About the PreApproval API Operation
1. Preapproval constraints are additive; thus, for example, if you specify a preapproval that
allows payments only on Fridays and on the 13th day of the month, the preapproval would
be valid only on Friday the 13th of months within the specified time period.
2. The startingDate and endingDate can be in either Zulu or GMT offset formats. as in
the following respective examples:
2010-09-10Z
2010-09-10T17:24:03.874-07:00
PreapprovalRequest Message
The PreapprovalRequest message contains the fields to set up a preapproval agreement
between yourself and a sender.
