Remarks on the Program Function
By use of this program you can maintain the basic data, i.e. insert new records, edit and delete the existing ones. You can also display the data on the screen for enquiry only.
Specifically, you can maintain the data of credit cards issuers using this program.
Note:
A general description of credit card processing can be found under Processng of credit
cards and in the documentation for Smart-Cards (CHIP & PIN)
This paragraph will provide a short overview over the options available for updating these Basic Data.
Just like in almost any other program:
- The Input Mask may be different in your MICROS Retail OSCAR POS program depending on the set-up of the application. In some cases some Data Fields may be missing.
- Some input fields may contain default values or defined selection options; these cannot be updated.
- The input mask contains some fields that require an entry and others in which entries are optional.
- If the data record is updated via multi-page input masks, go to the Dialog Window by clicking on the appropriate buttons with <Mouse key 1>.
- The same procedure applies to call up another update program from this program.
- In some cases you may find that so-called "Switches" which - depending on the default - can be activated or deactivated with <Mouse key 1>. Activated switches are identified by their dark color, deactivated switches are lighter-colored.

Blocked [Option]
Button activated : The card is blocked.
Button deactivated : The card is not blocked.

Online authorization req.
Button activated: An online
authorization is required.
Button deactivated: An online authorization is not necessary to post a
transaction.
Check service code [Option]
Button activated: The service code is checked during posting.
Button deactivated: The service code is not checked.
Ask usage [Option]
Button activated : If more
than one Card Usage is set up for an issuer, this
switch has to be set. During posting, the card usage will then be prompted.
Button deactivated : If there is only one card usage set up for the
issuer, this switch is not set.
Check card usage
If the switch is on, the card usage can be distinguished by the value entered in the Card Offset field.
Chip card
Switch active: All credit
card transactions are linked to this issuer.
Switch deactivated: Link to an issuer is done only via the number range
for the card no. (PAN = "Primary Account Number") in update program
"Positions issuer".
Note:
Please note that only one issuer can be configured in the system
with this option!
If a CHIP card reader is used in conjunction with the Retail Logic software an
issuer must be programmed in the MICROS Retail OSCAR POS program for all credit card
transactions. It is then unnecessary to configure
various issuers for different card nos. If an issuer
has been identified by the card no. range stored in the system this will be
overwritten.
