Use the Credit Card Payment Review Queue to view all failed, declined, and authorized credit card charges. The system places any transactions that failed due to communication-type errors or were declined due to a problem with the card in this queue for your review.
Use the information in this queue to help you with re-charges for failed or declined transactions, or to call the customer to get a different credit card number.
Use the information in the queue to help research why transactions failed or declined. For some declines, you might need to contact the customer for new or updated card information to reprocess the transaction.
To review and process failed and declined credit card charges:
From the A/R menu, select Credit Card Payment Review Queue to display the Credit Card Payment Review Queue screen.
In the Br/Tr/All field, enter the branch, branches, or territories for which you want review credit card transactions.
In the Select Itemsfield, select Failed to review only those transactions that failed due to a communication error, or Declined to view only the transactions where payment was declined on the entered and press Enter.
Review the information about why the transaction failed or was declined by selecting the transaction and using the Auth Message hot key.
For example, you might find that a transaction failed due to a communication error, or was declined because the card is expired. Having this information helps you make decisions about the actions to take regarding the transaction.
