Fee locks

To prevent duplicate transactions, fees are locked while users are making payments in Rhythm for Civics. You can use the Cashiering configuration for your Rest Services site to set timeouts for these locks. There are two different timeout attributes on the Setup node in this configuration:

  • Transaction Batch Lock Timeout specifies the number of seconds before an attempt to lock a fee will time out.
  • Fee Key Lock Timeout specifies the number of seconds a fee will remain locked if the lock isn't released. Normally the lock is released when payment is complete.
