'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 setResponseAuthorizedAmount([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err){ }

Remarks

In the case of a partially authorized transaction, this will contain the dollar amount that was actually authorized.

A Partial Authorization transaction occurs when the issuer authorizes part of the sale amount on a pre-paid credit card. The transaction is approved for an amount less than the original TransactionAmount, and the customer must tender the remaining balance with another form of payment. When a transaction is partially approved, the ResponseCode will contain "200", the ResponseMessage will contain "Partial Approval", and the ResponseMessageDetail will contain "PARTIAL AP", "PARTIALLY APPROVED", or "PARTIALLY APPROVED AUTHONLY" (for auth-only transactions). the ResponseAuthorizedAmount will contain the amount of the transaction that was authorized, and the ResponseBalanceDue property will indicate the amount still owed by the customer.

If a partial authorization occurs and the customer does not wish to go through with the transaction, you must submit a reversal of the authorization in order to return funds to the prepaid card.

This property is read-only.
