FDMSLevel3 Bean

The FDMSLevel3 component is a tool used to create Level 3 Corporate Purchasing Card addendum aggregates, which can then be passed to the FDMSSETTLE component and settled.

Syntax

InPayDirect.Fdmslevel3

Remarks

This Level3Extension bean creates Level 3 addendum data, which can be sent in the settlement to achieve a better interchange rate when accepting corporate purchasing cards. The Level 3 addendum allows the merchant to send very detailed information about every item that was purchased by the card holder, as well as tax and shipping information.

This bean creates a different addendum aggregate based on the CardType. Visa and MasterCard addendums differ slightly, and therefore a slightly different set of properties are required for each.

NOTE: You must send both a Level 2 addendum and a Level 3 addendum together in the same DetailAddendum. Level 3 data cannot be processed without a corresponding Level2 aggregate (however, you can send Level 2 data without Level 3 data).
