Notes and Details on the Response

ND001 - Hash Formation

The general rule to build the HASH field is given on the Special Fields and Parameters page, under the Hash Parameter section. For this specific feature, you should use the following formats:

When using a Single Currency Terminal, the string to generate the HASH field is going to be formed using:

TERMINALID:UNIQUEREF:AMOUNT:DATETIME:RESPONSECODE:RESPONSETEXT:BANKRESPONSECODE:SECRET

When using a Multi Currency Terminal, the string to generate the HASH field is going to formed using:

TERMINALID:UNIQUEREF:CURRENCY:AMOUNT:DATETIME:RESPONSECODE:RESPONSETEXT:BANKRESPONSECODE:SECRET


ND003 - Additional Information on Response

This data is going to be sent back only when the Terminal executing the transaction is configured to do so. This configuration can be activated on the Terminal settings by enabling the “Integration” option “Enable original response in XML”. Currently two possible fields can be returned: ACQUIRER_RESPONSE_CODE and ACQUIRER_RESPONSE_TEXT, containing the original code and text from the acquirer's response to the authorization transaction.


ND004 - Secure Card Auto Registration

This field is returned when a secure card is created based on the card data passed in the request. This is only going to happen when the settings on Merchant Portfolio and Terminal align to allow the auto creation and storage of Secure Cards, and the request in place sends the details for a Secure Card (no TRACKDATA). If you are curious and want to know more about the settings, visit the | Important Integration Settings page.


ND005 - Error Handling

If there is an error processing the transaction, the error string is returned in an XML message with the simple tags:

TERMINALID:UNIQUEREF:CURRENCY:AMOUNT:DATETIME:RESPONSECODE:RESPONSETEXT:BANKRESPONSECODE:SECRET

ND003 - Additional Information on Response

This data is going to be sent back only when the Terminal executing the transaction is configured to do so. This configuration can be activated on the Terminal settings by enabling the “Integration” option “Enable original response in XML”. Currently two possible fields can be returned: ACQUIRER_RESPONSE_CODE and ACQUIRER_RESPONSE_TEXT, containing the original code and text from the acquirer's response to the authorization transaction.


ND004 - Secure Card Auto Registration

This field is returned when a secure card is created based on the card data passed in the request. This is only going to happen when the settings on Merchant Portfolio and Terminal align to allow the auto creation and storage of Secure Cards, and the request in place sends the details for a Secure Card (no TRACKDATA). If you are curious and want to know more about the settings, visit the | Important Integration Settings page.

<ERROR>
    <ERRORSTRING>This is the error generated!</ERRORSTRING>
</ERROR>


ND003 - Additional Information on Response

This data is going to be sent back only when the Terminal executing the transaction is configured to do so. This configuration can be activated on the Terminal settings by enabling the “Integration” option “Enable original response in XML”. Currently two possible fields can be returned: ACQUIRER_RESPONSE_CODE and ACQUIRER_RESPONSE_TEXT, containing the original code and text from the acquirer's response to the authorization transaction.

eDCC Exchange Rate

Direct XML transactions (Payment, Pre-Auth and Pre-Auth Completion) can be DCC (Dynamic Currency Conversion) enabled. This is useful when card and terminal currencies are different. Our Payment Gateway supports Currency Conversion Rate requests. Broweser-based software applications can request the Conversion Rate for the card then the cardholder has to decide if he/she would like to use the eDCC service after which the appropriate request to the Gateway will be sent. All eDCC enabled XML transaction requests should include the additional FOREIGNCURRENCYINFORMATION tag with all required nested tags.

DCC transactions are allowed for the eDCC-enabled terminals only. DCC support for the terminal can be enabled or disabled by our support team only, and it's not available on multi-currency Terminals.

This feature allows you to obtain eDCC exchange rates for specific terminals, depending on the Terminal's settings.

Multi Currency Exchange Rate

Some Acquiring Banks support Multi Currency Processing (MCP). They allow Merchants processing transactions in one of a number of pre-defined currencies for a Terminal. This option allows Merchants to retrieve rates daily when using MCP Terminals, making possible to verify the accurate pricing of the currencies they desire to process transactions on.

This option is only available for TSYS Saratoga terminals, but if you have any questions, we will inform you if your Terminal ID supports multi-currency. Contact our support team if you have any questions relating to multi-currency terminals.
