Working with Customer Fraud Files (WCFD)
Purpose: You can build several fraud files on the system to evaluate customers to see if they are frauds, based on their:
• Names
• Addresses
• Postal codes
• Credit cards
• Checks
The system checks for fraudulent customers whenever you process a new order during order entry, or when you create a new customer through the Customer Maintenance file. When the system detects a fraud customer, based on the criteria you enter into the Customer Fraud file, the system places the customer's orders on hold and assigns a fraud reason code to the order.
There are several ways you can create a customer fraud record:
• create a record using the Create Fraudulent Customer Screen.
Note: Adding a customer to the Customer Fraud file does not by itself add a "fraud" flag to the customer's Hold/bypass/fraud field. You can add a flag to this field through order entry, order maintenance, or by working with the Customer Sold To or Customer Bill To file (See Creating and Updating Sold-to Customers (WCST) and Creating and Updating Bill-to Customers (WCBT)).
• enter F in the Hold/bypass/fraud field for a sold to customer. If you flag a sold to customer as fraud, the system creates a customer fraud record for the sold to customer and a separate customer fraud record for each ship to customer associated with the sold to customer.
• enter F in the Hold/bypass/fraud field for a bill to customer. If you flag a bill to customer as fraud, the system creates a customer fraud record for the bill to customer only.
