tr_pmt_method_group and payment express

We weren't using Merchant ID's in tr_pmt_method_group, but were using them for grouping tr_payment_method entries.  Now we're moving to Payment Express and tr_pmt_method_group entries need a Merchant ID, but the some of the groups contain payment methods with different Merchant ID's.  For example: Payment Method Group 26 is composed of Payment Methods  Box Office and Web, but the Merchant ID for Box Office is 999 and the Merchant ID for Web is 888.  So what do I put in as the Merchant ID for Payment Method Group 26?  999 or 888?  Does it really matter?  Or do I need to create separate Payment Method Groups?

Any help would be appreciated.

  • We just moved from Transcend to Payment Express and the merchant ID’s are blank in the TR_PMT_METHOD_GROUP table.  They were always blank.  Our merchant numbers are set up in Campaigns, References, Payment Methods.   Not sure if this helps, or hurts! J

  • So that's how we are set up.  I was reading that you had to put Merchant ID in TR_PMT_METHOD_GROUP.  The answer I got from Tessitura was that "You may still have multiple merchant id's on your payment methods. You will just need to choose one of those Merchant ID to enter in TR_PMT_METHOD_GROUP. Please note: All tokens created in that Payment Method Group will be created with the Merchant ID you entered in TR_PMT_METHOD_GROUP. "  With your information i've just asked if we can leave it blank, just so I have an answer from them.  Thanks for you help and information.
