Scanning a credit card during tendering

If you have properly set up a scanner device, you can swipe the card during order entry.

  1. After you have initiated an order in Sales Order Entry, selected the products, and reviewed taxes and totals, select the Collect Payment view.
  2. In the Pricing Calculator section, in Totals By, select Ordered or Shipped.

    By default, the amount of the order is displayed in the Total Charged field. The order amount is also displayed in the Amount column of the credit card listed first in the Process Payment section.

  3. Click One Time Sale.
  4. Click OK to open a journal.
  5. You are now connected to the credit card processor's One Time Sale form.
  6. Scan the customer's credit card. The data stored on the magnetic stripe automatically populates the Card Number, Cardholder Name, Expiration, CVC, and Zip Code fields.
  7. In the Last four digits field, specify the last four digits of the credit card number.

    This field is available when you swipe a card using a scanner device. This field provides a verification that the credit card is present during the setup or tendering process.

  8. Click Submit.
  9. In the transaction receipt, click one of these options:
    • Done, if you do not want to print a receipt, or
    • Print, to print a receipt.
  10. Click Accept Payment.
  11. Click OK to open a journal.
    If the transaction is approved, this message is displayed: Card Approved ************<last four digits>.
  12. Click Save to complete the order.
