Enabling the ewebdedicatedcreditcardbatchhour system option will give you the option to specify the time you wish new credit card dedicated batches to begin. When the hour that has been selected arrives, a new manual dedicated batch for each credit card type (that has been enabled for dedicated batching) will be created for that day. All transactions using those credit card types will be processed using that day’s batch. This will allow you to keep track of your credit card transactions by day (provided that credit card type had a manual dedicated batch enabled.)
Note: The ewebdedicatedcreditcardbatch system option must be enabled (set to 1) in order to use the ewebdedicatedcreditcardbatchhour system option.
Setting the hour for new dedicated batches to begin is a system option setting that is done by Abila Support. By first enabling, and then modifying the ewebdedicatedcreditcardbatchhour system option, support can specify the time you wish the new daily dedicated batches to begin.
All dedicated manual batches will begin at 12 am each day (a 24 hour clock is used for this system option, so therefore 0 am equals 12 am.) Additional values that may be applied are demonstrated in the image below when they system option is edited by Abila Support.
Note: The values am and pm must be entered in lower case on the Edit - System Option form.
Please note, that simply stating an hour for the new dedicated batches to begin does not close the previous batches. You must remember to manually go in and close each previous day’s batch. Visit the Closing a Manual Batch help topic for more information on closing a batch.
Visit the Setting Up eWeb Batches by Credit Card Type for information on setting up manual dedicated batches for eWeb credit card purchases.
