Credit Function

The credit function name; select it from the dropdown list.

Mode

The store and forward send mode. Select one of the following options:

None — Credit request is sent only, no SAF record is triggered (if the flag Process SAF After Online Auth is turned off). If this mode is set for End Of Day Credit Function, then no end of day credit request is sent to the credit provider when performing end of day processes.

Must Send SAF File — Must send the SAF request until it is processed before the credit request can be sent. No credit request is sent if a SAF record is not processed.

Attempt Send and Save — Attempt to send the SAF request, then the credit request. If the credit request cannot be processed, it is written to the SAF file.

Attempt Send and Delete — Attempt to send the SAF request, then the SAF file is deleted, and the credit request is sent. If the credit request cannot be processed, it is written to the SAF file.

SAF Max Sends

The system can send the SAF file in blocks of data instead of the whole batch at a time; this defines the number of blocks that can make up one SAF file

SAF Interval (minutes)

Credit server timer for intermittent tasks, in minutes

Process SAF After Online Auth

Select this checkbox to trigger the SAF file (store and forward file) when there is an online authorization. The sequence of sending the SAF file also depends on the Mode configuration of the Credit Function.

Credit Duplicate Checking

Select this checkbox to have the system maintain a file of authorized requests and to check the file for duplicates before adding requests to the credit queue

Reverse Failed SAF Request

You use this parameter to ensure that a failed SAF request is reversed even if it is not in the SAF request when it was added to the online request. Select this checkbox to recheck for any reversals for the current terminal.

Credit Log Level

The debug logging can be done through configuration in the xpsLog.ini file.

Modem Serial Port Rate Config

Modem command that keeps the baud rate between the port and the modem constant, with no regard to connection speed

Default Expiry

The default expiration date to use on credit checks when no date is given; enter the date in the format mm/yy

Terminal Based Settlement

Select this checkbox to have the system automatically settle by register. This blocks all other credit requests if they have sent out a SAF request. The system resumes regular request sending after either receiving a matching SAF response or the SAF request times out.

Heartbeat Interval

A numeric value that defines the frequency at which messages are sent to the credit approval service provider

Credit Service

The credit service to which the system sends heart beat requests

Block Requests During SAF Processing

Select this checkbox to block the system from sending any other requests while in SAF processing mode

SAF Reversal Count Control

Number of reversals allowed during a SAF request

Store Referral Sequence Number in TLOG

Select this checkbox to have the system automatically write the sequence number of the referral request to the TLOG record instead of the sequence number of the original sales authorization request. As a result, during a post-void transaction, SAP POS sends the sequence number of the referral request (the message that was actually authorized) to the credit provider instead of the sequence number of the original request.

Sequence Number Control

Controls sequence number processing on the POS/Xpress Server
