Chapter 47: Defining Authorization Service Currencies

Purpose: Use Work with Authorization Currency screens to set up cross references between the currency codes you use in CWDirect and the service bureau's codes. The system uses these cross references to determine which currency code to pass to the service bureau when authorizing credit cards and processing deposits.

If you use Paymentech (PMT), you should set up a cross reference to your local currency code and any other currencies you use in order entry.

Note: Currently, only Paymentech uses these currency codes.
