Function	Description
Payment	EFTLink sends payment requests to AJB FIPay. AJB will return a response message with formatted receipt strings for customer and/or merchant receipts. In an event of referral where authorization cannot be obtained online then a prompt for authorization code will appear; the authorization code must be obtained via telephone and entered here. If successful, appropriate receipts will be printed at the end of transaction.
Reversal	EFTLink sends reversal requests to AJB FIPay. This will reverse a transaction specified by the transaction number, found on the receipt, which must be captured by the POS and passed on to EFTLink.
Refund	EFTLink sends refund requests to AJB FIPay. This will refund a transaction with specified amount.
Reconciliation / Settlement	This is not supported directly by AJB FIPay via TCP/IP request; instead, a batch script supplied by AJB must be used. This can be set up to run automatically at a specific time or on-demand at user's discretion.
Check Payment	EFTLink sends check payment requests to AJB FIPay. Please note that offline authorization is not permitted for check payments. This type of payment is not permitted in the SAF queue of the AJB FIPay solution.
Sale State Notifications	Sends line items through to the device so the customer display can be updated in line with the POS.
