GetBatchSummary Method

Retrieves a summary of the current open batch for a merchant.

Syntax

globalbatchmgr.getBatchSummary([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 method is no longer available as the underlying Global Transport API has changed. This method retrieves information about all of the transactions in the current open batch, and stores this information in the SummaryResults collection. The results will be separated by payment type ("MasterCard", "Visa", "DEBIT", etc.). You may optionally set a start and ending date to filter transactions with, using the SummaryBeginDate and SummaryEndDate properties.

To retrieve a summary of all transactions (even transactions that have already been settled) use the GlobalTransactionSearch class's GetTransactionSummary method instead.
