SendSettlement Method

Begins a Batch Settlement transaction with the transaction server.

Syntax

fdmssettle.sendSettlement([callback])

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for this method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

This begins a Batch Settlement transaction. The class begins a session with the Datawire system, and then posts a header record, all the detail records, all the Level 2 and Level 3 addendum records (if any), and a trailer record in sequence. The session is then automatically terminated, and the ResponseBatchStatus property will indicate the result of the settlement as returned by the FDMS processor.
