Creating and configuring SVS property through OPERA Cloud

The OPERA Cloud users with the PPCONF role can access OPERA Cloud, activate the Prepaid Card parameter for prepaid card transactions, and create a SVS property interface for a new property. See Activating Prepaid Card Functionality for more information. Once the property is created, connect to the OPI Cloud Service. This will launch the OPI Cloud Tenant Configuration portal. Prior to creating the Property Interface, a Cashier ID for the interface should be created. See Configuring Cashiers for more information.
