If you set the Transmit to ICVerify flag in this program to N, your system is in manual mode, and all transactions must be voice authorized.This program enables you to activate, deactivate and manage various credit card handling features in the FACTS system.
FACTS supports two types of credit card handling: manual and automatic. A manual system accommodates users who already have electronic credit card processing already in place, as well as those who are using imprint devices and settling credit card payments over the phone. Those using a manual credit card system would select the Use Voice Authorization Only flag, and ignore the other fields in this program.
The automatic system integrates credit card handling into FACTS with the use of ICVERIFY , PayflowPro, or CenPOS, third-party credit card processing software packages. If your company uses or plans to use ICVERIFY, PayflowPro or CenPOS, the Credit Card Control F/M bridges that program to FACTS. Some of the flags in this program can be activated to turn on security features, or they can be deactivated to speed up credit card transactions.
The Credit Card Control F/M program reads the Company Control F/M (SMF920) file and displays only the fields appropriate for the credit card processor selected.
If Manual is chosen in Company Control F/M (SMF920), then the system displays a message indicating that a credit card processor has not been chosen, and a Manual tab is available, so that the last credit card receipt number used can be viewed.
If you set the Transmit to ICVerify flag in this program to N, your system is in manual mode, and all transactions must be voice authorized.
Note: Several other file maintenance programs also require edits for ICVERIFY to properly interface with FACTS. Refer to ICVERIFY’s documentation for information on settling transactions and setting up accounts with a credit card processing company.
