Electronic Payment Server –Choose the method that Acme will use to talk to your Credit, Debit, EBT and or Check processor.
You can elect to have no payment server if you plan to process your electronic payments outside of Acme. You should still use Tender Types to tell how the payment was handled, eg. have a payment type for check, credit card, etc. -Just set the Tender Types up as un-authorized. Processing inside Acme is less error prone and therefore can earn you a better processing rate as well as saving you time. Acme also has Processor Partners that offer very special rates for our customers. Please contact us if you are interested in a free, no obligation quote that only takes a few minutes and could save most Acme stores hundreds or even thousands of dollars annually.
Process Credit Debit and SNAP Cards Yes/No
DNS Host Names or IP Addresses -host names are preferred unless static IP's are assigned. If using a single terminal the loop back I.P. of 127.0.0.1 works well.
Unless loop back, best practice dictates that if possible you use host name instead of IP address and if you use IP address the server should be setup with a static rather than dynamic IP address.
enter host name without slashes, example:
myservername1
myservername2
Credit Card Merchant ID -Enter the number provided by the processor.
Terminal ID -Issued by processor.
Enable Void by Record Number Yes/No
Set to YES, if voiding credit card tenders causes error, set to NO.
Request Time Out -Enter number of seconds that should pass before Acme stops trying to authorize. This value may be overridden by middle-ware or processor and in some cases you cannot edit the value shown.
