How do I set a Custom Welcome Message on a course without self-enrollment?

I have a course with self-enrollment and have successfully set a Custom Welcome Message on it.

I have another course with PayPal enrollment (and manual enrollment). I do not see the same configuration page to set a Custom Welcome Message on this one. Can someone tell me how to do this please?

I'm using MoodleCloud, which is at Moodle v3.2.

I checked the PayPal enrollment in Moodle v3.0 and it simply does not have a Custom Welcome Message functionality implemented. The Custom Welcome Message function has been implemented only in the self-enrollment plugin.
Details: the self-enrollment plugin has a function called email_welcome_message() (Send welcome email to specified user), which in turn will be called when a user enrols him/herself.

However, in the settings page of the PayPal plugin:

Home->Site administration->Plugins->Enrolments->PayPal

you could check the checkbox "Notify students" in order to get students notified via an email when they've been enrolled via PayPal. I did not test this, though.
