FDMSRcRetail Bean

Properties   Methods   Events   Configuration Settings   Errors  

The FDMSRcRetail component is an advanced tool used to authorize credit cards in a Retail environment, where the customer is purchasing products or services in person. This component makes authorizing these types of transactions very easy. Supported Industry Types include retail stores and restaurants.

Syntax

InPayDirect.Fdmsrcretail

Remarks

This component connects to the First Data Merchant Services (FDMS) processor, by way of the Datawire VXN transaction transport network. Transactions originating with these components go through Datawire, to the FDMS processor where the transaction is authorized. The result is then returned back through Datawire and received by the component. This component can be integrated into web pages or stand-alone Point Of Sale applications. Because all SSL communications are handled inside the component, any application or web page can be deployed without the need for expensive dedicated SSL servers.

The FDMSRcRetail component makes authorizing Card-Present transactions (where the customer's card is swiped through a card reader) very easy by adding an additional layer of abstraction between the programmer and the protocol. There is no need to deal with raw sockets, TLS/SSL handshakes, or data packet formatting. The steps to setting up the component and authorizing a transaction are outlined below:

Datawire Setup

First, you must register and activate your account with Datawire. FDMS Rapid Connect will provide you with the following values:

The FDMSRegister component must be used to activate the merchant and receive a DatawireId. Once you acquire the DatawireId and receive your transaction URLs through ServiceDiscovery, you may begin to authorize transactions. For instance:


FDMSRegister.FDMSPlatform = FdmsregisterFDMSPlatforms.fpRapidConnect;
FDMSRegister.MerchantNumber = "000000999990";
FDMSRegister.MerchantTerminalNumber = "555555";
FDMSRegister.Config("GroupId=20001"); //Required for Rapid Connect

FDMSRegister.TransactionNumber = "1"; //any unique number will do.
FDMSRegister.URL = "https://stagingsupport.datawire.net/staging_expresso/SRS.do";
FDMSRegister.Register(); 
FDMSRegister.TransactionNumber = FDMSRegister.TransactionNumber + 1;
FDMSRegister.Activate();
FDMSRegister.ServiceDiscovery(FDMSRegister.PrimaryDiscoveryURL);
for (int i = 0; i < FDMSRegister.ServiceProviders.Length; i++) {
  FDMSRegister.Ping(FDMSRegister.ServiceProviders[i]);
  Console.WriteLine(FDMSRegister.ServiceProviders[i] + " = " + FDMSRegister.PingResponseTime);
}

To authorize a credit card set the MerchantId, MerchantTerminalNumber, and GroupId properties with the values supplied by FDMS Rapid Connect. Set the DatawireId property with the value retrieved by the FDMSRegister component after activating your merchant account. Set the URL property with one of the URLs you retrieved during ServiceDiscovery.

Transaction Processing

To being processing transactions first set the required merchant values. For instance:

retail.IndustryType = FdmsrcretailIndustryTypes.fitRetail;
retail.TPPID = "AAA000";
retail.MerchantTerminalNumber = "00000001";
retail.MerchantId = "1234";
retail.GroupId = "20001";
retail.DatawireId = "00011122233344455566";
retail.URL = "https://stg.dw.us.fdcnet.biz/rc";
retail.ApplicationId = "RAPIDCONNECTVXN";

Next specify transaction specific information. These values uniquely identify the transaction to Datawire and FDMS.

retail.STAN = "112";
retail.TransactionNumber = "1234";
retail.OrderNumber = "123";
retail.ReferenceNumber = "123";
Then specify customer card and address information along with the transaction amount:
retail.Card.MagneticStripe = "B4012000033330026^FDCS TEST CARD   /VISA^170410054321000000000000000  150  A";
retail.Card.EntryDataSource = EntryDataSources.edsTrack1;

retail.TransactionAmount = "1200"; //$12.00

Finally, submit the transaction by calling the Sale method.


retail.Sale();

The Code field indicates the result of the transaction. A code of 000 indicates success. For all other values please see the Response Codes section. Additional Response properties such as ApprovalCode, AuthorizedAmount, Text, AVSResult, CVVResult, and more, provide further details about the transaction response.

To perform subsequent operations on a transaction, such as calling Reverse to reverse a Sale, or calling Capture to capture a previous AuthOnly transaction the GetDetailAggregate method must be used to get details about the original transaction. This aggregate must be stored securely, it will contain cardholder information that is required for subsequent transactions. For instance:


retail.AuthOnly();

//Save the detail aggregate to use with Capture
string aggregate = retail.GetDetailAggregate();

//The aggregate must then be stored securely.
//At a later time the aggregate is retrieved in order to perform a capture.

//Capture
retail = new Fdmsrcretail();
...

//Specify the detail aggregate from the original transaction
retail.SetDetailAggregate(aggregate);

retail.Capture();

Transaction Types

In addition to a basic sale transaction, additional transaction types exist for other common operations. Not all transaction types are applicable for all components. Check the method list for applicable transaction types.

AuthOnly An authorization that must be Captured later.
BalanceInquiry Inquire about available balance.
Capture Captures a previous AuthOnly transaction for settlement.
Credit Credits funds to the cardholder. This is not based on a previous transaction.
Reverse Reverse a previous transaction. This is also used for timeout reversals.
Sale A basic sale, no other steps are required to complete the payment.
VerifyCard Verifies that a card is valid.

Note: FDMS Rapid Connect is a host capture system. No explicit calls are needed to settle or otherwise manage the batch.

Gratuity for Restaurant Transactions:

In order to add gratuity the transaction may be authorized using AuthOnly and then Captured for a different amount that includes the tip. Gratuity cannot be added later to a Sale transaction. Consult FDMS for any applicable limits on the additional amount being captured.

Level 2 Transactions

The values required for Level 2 transaction depend on the card type. The following tables indicate which properties are valid for what card type:

American Express

Visa MasterCard
