Supervisor Code

 

The Supervisor Code is designed to limit access to the Supervisor Functions configured for certain transaction types or access to certain Function Codes on the card machine.

2. Select either Sale or Refund (depending on what you want to process).

If your business takes a lot of CNP transactions, you may find a Virtual Terminal to be a more useful method of taking payment.

End of day report

2. Select Totals/Reports.


3. Enter your Supervisor Code.

5. The terminal will either go online to the acquirer to confirm the totals before printing the report, or will print out a report showing the totals.

 

End-of-Day-Banking should be performed every day as this is your confirmation of the transaction totals that have been sent to the acquirer.

Batching timescales

 

Once you’ve completed your End of Day banking report, it will be sent to the acquiring bank to be processed and paid into your bank account. The settlement timescales are as follows:

 

Standard settlement
2-3 working days

 

Same Day Settlement

 

Batch Time

11.01 pm - 4.00 am
4.01 am - 3.00 pm
3.01 pm - 11.00 pm         

Funds Received

Before 11.00 am start of business

Before 7.00 pm same day

Before 11.00 am next day


If you would like Same Day Settlement added to your account or are unsure if you have it, please contact our Customer Support team.

Auto end of day report

 

Also known as ‘auto-batching’, this enables your card machine to bank the transactions listed on your End of Day report at a set time each day. You can choose a specific hour in the day when this is performed e.g. 17.00-18.00 daily.

 

The batching timescales for receiving funds are the same as if you ran your End of Day report manually:

 

Standard settlement
2-3 working days

 

Same Day Settlement

Your card machine will not be pre-programmed with this function but setup can be requested by contacting our Customer Support team.

X and Z reports

 

These reports allow you to print out a statement of which transactions have been made on your card machine regardless of your End of Day report being run or not.

 

This feature is typically used by businesses that operate by shift work. E.g. you may be a restaurant that opens for a separate lunch and dinner sitting and want to know how much is taken in each sitting.


X report – ‘Mid shift’

The X report is intended to be mid-shift snapshot of what has transacted on the card machine from the beginning of the shift until the present moment.

    • Prints out every transaction that has or hasn’t been batched.
    • The totals will remain on the card machine.
 
Z report – ‘End shift’

The Z report is intended to be an overview of the card machine’s entire shift from open to close.

    • Prints out every transaction that has or hasn’t been batched.
    • The totals on the card machine will be reset to zero.


Note: This will not remove the totals from the End of Day report. For both X & Z reports you will still need to run your End of Day report in order to receive your funds. 

 

Your card machine will not be pre-programmed with this function but can be requested by contacting our Customer Support team.
