Postauthorization 

Use

Each time you process and save a document with the payment form Payment Card, the system starts a new authorization.

However, perhaps a document is not authorized automatically when you create or change it. The reasons for this could be:

●     The item delivery date was outside the authorization horizon.

●     The validity period of an authorization expired.

●     The authorization was consumed.

●     The clearing house rejected the authorization.

●     The authorization failed for technical reasons.

You use postauthorization to trigger an authorization at a later time for sales transactions or sales items that were not authorized automatically when you created or changed them.

Activities

Schedule report crm_paycard_auth_batchregularly as a background job.

To avoid data inconsistency, do not schedule this report in both systems (ERP and SAP CRM) or select your criteria to ensure that the same document is not postauthorized in different systems.

The report enters all sales documents with the payment form Payment Card whose delivery date is within the authorization horizon and triggers an authorization in the clearing house.
