texte = Yesterday, I posted a question about a problem I was having with voids in WebMerchant. After not getting any replies, and finding nothing wrong with the WebMerchant templates, I called CyberCash to find out if the data in the encryption routine was correct. After discussing it with them, they told me that the routine was not correct. Here is the routine in WebMerchant that I am referring to:[ShowIf [payMethod]=VO] [text]content=[encrypt method=cybercash&seed=[seed]]txn-type=capture&order-id=[SequenceNumber][/encrypt][/text] [text]_command=void[/text] [/ShowIf]After talking to CyberCash, they told me that the transaction type (txn-type) should be marked, not capture. After making that change, the void was successful. I assume that this is necessary, as the customer's CyberCash account is set up to automark and autosettle the purchases. As such, am I mistaken in assuming that this is the reason why capture does not work? Since the purchase is marked immediately, it cannot be voided by telling the cybercash server that it needs to void a capture. It needs to void a mark.Under this theory, once the purchase is settled, I assume that this void routine would not work, as the transaction type would need to be changed to settled. Also, what type of transaction type would I need to use in order to allow my customer to process a credit, for an item not listed in the orders.db? He has a client that called himand told him that she had been overcharged. Can he just process a credit for her account, even though there may not be an order in the orders.db? Can he just process a partial refund of a purchase, or issue a blanket refund of any value, just to get a customer off his back? If so, what type of transaction type would be needed?Thanks for the help,Dennis ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
