TransferAmount Property

Amount of the bank transfer being initiated, modified or synchronized.

Syntax

 banktransfer.getTransferAmount([callback])
 banktransfer.setTransferAmount( transferAmount, [callback])

Default Value

""

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 getTransferAmount([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 setTransferAmount([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

Amount of the bank transfer being initiated, modified or synchronized.

This is required to be provided when initiating or modifying a transfer (i.e., when either TransferFunds or ModifyTransfer methods are called),

It is returned in the server response for each payment being synchronized (when the SynchronizeTransfers method is called).

Note: the financial institution usually returns amounts as a string that includes the sign (+/-) of the amount. However, the server may sometimes leave out a particular property if it is not required by the OFX specification. To avoid confusion that can be caused by returning integers, the class will return all amount types as a string, with the empty string ("") for properties not returned by the server.

Where there is a value returned by the server, the class will attempt to convert the string into a format that can be easily parsed into an integer value. This behavior can be controlled by the CurrencyFormat config setting.

This property is not available at design time.
