ForceClose Property

Forces a batch Capture even if there are mismatched transaction totals.

Syntax

 globalbatchmgr.getForceClose([callback])
 globalbatchmgr.setForceClose( forceClose, [callback])

Default Value

FALSE

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 the getForceClose([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, data){ }

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

'data' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setForceClose([callback]) 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

Calling CaptureAll with ForceClose set to True will settle all transactions for all payment types in the current batch regardless of whether the totals match with the Global Payments server (which can happen if there are timeouts or discrepancies based on other connectivity issues). This function should only be used when the merchant's account is setup for "merchant-initiated" close on the Global Payments server and if a normal CaptureAll batch close request fails with a "MUST BALANCE NOW" response.
