Hi all,
For anyone out there who is live with Element, where does TR_PAYMENT_METHOD.merchant_id_for_swipe come into play? TR_PAYMENT_METHOD.merchant_id is the one that is entered into the config settings in TessituraPaymentGateway.exe but I don’t see the swipe id mentioned anywhere.
E.g. MasterCard merchant_id = 206, merchant_id_for_swipe = 205. Where does 205 get referenced, if anywhere?
I have confirmed with Element that our merchant accounts will be able to process both swiped and keyed transactions, so does this mean that I just update the TR_PAYMENT_METHOD.merchant_id_for_swipe column to reflect the merchant_id column? So, in the above example both end up being 206?
Thanks for any insight,
Natasha
Wouldn’t it be the Merchant ID that is in Campaigns\References\Payment Methods? Make sure the Swipe checkbox is selected then you must indicate a merchant id under Retail Merchant ID. That ID must match the Element ID for retail sales.
