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 collects no credit card processing information and accommodates users who are using imprint devices and settling credit card payments over the phone.
The automatic system integrates credit card handling into FACTS with the use of CenPOS, a third-party credit card processing software package. If your company uses or plans to use 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. When you have completed the information on this screen, click Test beside the Base URL prompt to display the Test CenPOS Connectivity & Card Reader dialog box, where you can submit a 1-cent test transaction.
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-Do not collect Information 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.
Click field descriptions for information on each field.
