PTechBenefit Component

Properties   Methods   Events   Config Settings   Errors  

The PTechBenefit component is used to authorize Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) transactions with the Paymentech NetConnect system on the Tampa platform. An EBT transaction is similar to a Debit transaction, using a PIN and Trace number, but is used for Food Stamp or Cash Benefit programs. This component allows for simple, direct, secure communication to the Paymentech TLS/SSL gateway through a standard Internet connection.

Syntax

TibcPTechBenefit

Remarks

An EBT Card (also known as Cash Benefit Card or Food Stamps) works similar to a bank debit card. EBT is a special application of electronic funds transfer (EFT), or debit card technology, which takes money directly from one account and transfers it to another (credit cards, by comparison, simply record a sale for payment later).

There are just a few steps to setting up the component and sending transactions. First, set the MerchantNumber, TerminalNumber, ClientNumber, UserId, and Password with the information given to you when you signed up for Paymentech service.

After the merchant information is setup, you may enter transaction data. Under normal circumstances, Track2 data should be read from the credit card and placed in the CardMagneticStripe. The CardEntryDataSource should be set to dsTrack2, and the CardPIN and CardKSN should be filled with the encrypted PIN and key sequence number returned by your PIN pad. If the card reader is unable to read the magnetic stripe, card info may be manually added in the CardNumber, CardExpMonth, and CardExpYear properties. In this case, the CardEntryDataSource must be set to dsManuallyKeyed. These are the only two CardEntryDataSources supported for EBT cards.

Now simply set the TransactionAmount and call the Sale method to charge the card. You may also Credit funds back to the card (Food Stamp BenefitType only), as well as send a BalanceInquiry. Voice authorizations may be sent using the Force method.

The status of any of the above transactions will be stored in the ResponseCode property, with human-readable text appearing in ResponseText. Like the PTechCharge component, there are several other Response properties which will contain data that should be logged.

EBT regulations require that all customer receipts include the last 4 digits of the CardNumber and the ResponseTrace number, as well as the available balance for the account accessed. Balances are returned in the ResponseAvailableBalance and ResponseCashAvailableBalance properties. Additional Response balance properties contain extra information which the merchant may optionally include.

EBT Card transactions are instant funds transfers. There is no block placed on the debit card, funds are immediately removed and sent to the merchant. Therefore, only the Host Capture settlement mode is supported. At the end of the day you should release the current batch using the PTechHostSettle component (the batch may contain other authorizations that were made using different components from this product. See the documentation for the other components you are using for more information).

However, any other non-numerical data entered will cause an exception to be thrown. It may be useful in some gateways to send other data in the CardNumber or CardMagneticStripe fields, and this can be accomplished by setting IsEncrypted to true. However, please note that in doing so automatic calculation of the CardType may be affected, and the card number will not be verified.

Sequence number of the transaction.

Syntax

__property int SequenceNumber = { read=FSequenceNumber, write=FSetSequenceNumber };

Default Value

0

Remarks

This field is user definable and can be used at the users discretion. When submitting any type of transaction for approval, this sequence number may be any numeric value 0 to 2400. This is a purely optional field for the Host Capture SettlementMode, and you may choose to send a unique number or simply send every transaction with zeros. The host will echo the sequence number submitted from the authorization request back in the ResponseSequenceNumber property.

However, if you are processing with the Terminal Capture SettlementMode, SequenceNumber CANNOT remain zero, and must contain a number that is incremented for each transaction you authorized. When it reaches 2400, the SequenceNumber should then start over at 1 again.

Data Type

Integer

Server Property (PTechBenefit Component)

The URL for the PaymenTech NetConnect server.

Syntax

__property String Server = { read=FServer, write=FSetServer };

Default Value

Remarks

This is the name of the certificate store for the client certificate.

The SSLCertStoreType property denotes the type of the certificate store specified by SSLCertStore. If the store is password protected, specify the password in SSLCertStorePassword.

SSLCertStore is used in conjunction with the SSLCertSubject property to specify client certificates. If SSLCertStore has a value, and SSLCertSubject or SSLCertEncoded is set, a search for a certificate is initiated. Please see the SSLCertSubject property for details.

Designations of certificate stores are platform dependent.

The following designations are the most common User and Machine certificate stores in Windows:

When the certificate store type is PFXFile, this property must be set to the name of the file. When the type is PFXBlob, the property must be set to the binary contents of a PFX file (i.e., PKCS#12 certificate store).

Data Type

Byte Array

SSLCertStorePassword Property (PTechBenefit Component)

If the type of certificate store requires a password, this property is used to specify the password needed to open the certificate store.

Syntax

__property String SSLCertStorePassword = { read=FSSLCertStorePassword, write=FSetSSLCertStorePassword };

Data Type

Integer

SSLCertSubject Property (PTechBenefit Component)

This is the subject of the certificate used for client authentication.

Syntax

__property String SSLCertSubject = { read=FSSLCertSubject, write=FSetSSLCertSubject };

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property must be set after all other certificate properties are set. When this property is set, a search is performed in the current certificate store to locate a certificate with a matching subject.

If a matching certificate is found, the property is set to the full subject of the matching certificate.

If an exact match is not found, the store is searched for subjects containing the value of the property.

If a match is still not found, the property is set to an empty string, and no certificate is selected.

The special value "*" picks a random certificate in the certificate store.

The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=support@nsoftware.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:

If a field value contains a comma, it must be quoted.

Data Type

String

SSLProvider Property (PTechBenefit Component)

This specifies the SSL/TLS implementation to use.

Syntax

__property TibcPTechBenefitSSLProviders SSLProvider = { read=FSSLProvider, write=FSetSSLProvider };

enum TibcPTechBenefitSSLProviders {
  sslpAutomatic=0,
  sslpPlatform=1,
  sslpInternal=2
};

Default Value

sslpAutomatic

Remarks

This property specifies the SSL/TLS implementation to use. In most cases the default value of 0 (Automatic) is recommended and should not be changed. When set to 0 (Automatic) the component will select whether to use the platform implementation or the internal implementation depending on the operating system as well as the TLS version being used.

Possible values are:

In most cases using the default value (Automatic) is recommended. The component will select a provider depending on the current platform.

When Automatic is selected the platform implementation is used by default. When TLS 1.3 is enabled via SSLEnabledProtocols the internal implementation is used.

Data Type

Integer

SSLServerCertEncoded Property (PTechBenefit Component)

This is the certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded).

Syntax

__property String SSLServerCertEncoded = { read=FSSLServerCertEncoded };
__property DynamicArray<Byte> SSLServerCertEncodedB = { read=FSSLServerCertEncodedB };

Default Value

""

Remarks

This is the certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded). This property is used to assign a specific certificate. The SSLServerCertStore and SSLServerCertSubject properties also may be used to specify a certificate.

When SSLServerCertEncoded is set, a search is initiated in the current SSLServerCertStore for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, SSLServerCertSubject is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, SSLServerCertSubject is set to an empty string.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Byte Array

TerminalNumber Property (PTechBenefit Component)

Terminal number assigned by Paymentech.

Syntax

__property String TerminalNumber = { read=FTerminalNumber, write=FSetTerminalNumber };

Default Value

""

Remarks

3-digit field assigned by Paymentech, which identifies the terminal to the host.

Data Type

String

Timeout Property (PTechBenefit Component)

A timeout for the component.

Syntax

__property int Timeout = { read=FTimeout, write=FSetTimeout };

Default Value

60

Remarks

If the Timeout property is set to 0, all operations will run uninterrupted until successful completion or an error condition is encountered.

If Timeout is set to a positive value, the component will wait for the operation to complete before returning control.

The component will use DoEvents to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not "freeze" and remains responsive.

If Timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the component raises an exception.

Please note that by default, all timeouts are inactivity timeouts, i.e. the timeout period is extended by Timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.

The default value for the Timeout property is 60 seconds.

Data Type

Integer

TransactionAmount Property (PTechBenefit Component)

Purchase amount for an authorization.

Syntax

__property String TransactionAmount = { read=FTransactionAmount, write=FSetTransactionAmount };

Default Value

""

Remarks

This field contains the transaction amount to be authorized. The transaction amount is presented in US Dollars with a decimal point in the proper position. If sending a Debit transaction and the customer requests cash back, the TransactionAmount must include the total cost of the purchase, PLUS the DebitCashBack amount.

This must be formatted as a dollar amount with a real decimal point, excluding the dollar sign. For instance "12.00"

Data Type

String

UserId Property (PTechBenefit Component)

UserId for authentication with the NetConnect Server .

Syntax

__property String UserId = { read=FUserId, write=FSetUserId };

Default Value

""

Remarks

The UserId will be supplied to you by PaymenTech.

Data Type

String

BalanceInquiry Method (PTechBenefit Component)

Retrieves the balance remaining on an EBT card.

Syntax

void __fastcall BalanceInquiry();

Remarks

A BalanceInquiry transaction requests that the host return the quantity of funds remaining in the customer's EBT Card. This transaction is not added to the batch and cannot be settled by the PTechHostSettle component. No charge is made to the customer's EBT card.

The EBT card may be specified by either a CardMagneticStripe returned by a card reader, (Track2 only), or manually entered through the CardNumber. CardExpMonth, and CardExpYear.

The ResponseCode and ResponseText properties indicate whether this transaction was successful.

The ResponseAvailableBalance and/or ResponseLedgerBalance, properties will contain the card's current balance. Additional balance information may be returned in the ResponseBeginningBalance. If the BenefitType is "Cash Benefits" the ResponseCashAvailableBalance, ResponseCashBeginningBalance, and ResponseCashLedgerBalance may also contain information (these properties are not filled for the "Food Stamp" BenefitType).

Config Method (PTechBenefit Component)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

String __fastcall Config(String ConfigurationString);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every component. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the component.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

Credit Method (PTechBenefit Component)

Credits a cardholder's account or obtains a Return Authorization.

Syntax

void __fastcall Credit();

Remarks

Also known as a Return, this transaction refunds the cardholder's account. It can be used in both Host Capture and Terminal Capture SettlementModes.

If you are using the Host Capture SettlementMode, the Credit method will send a Return request to Paymentech. Paymentech will treat the request as an online purchase return authorization if the online return functionality is available for the given card brand and merchant. In this case an authorization request is sent to the card brand and if the authorization is successful the transaction is automatically included in the current batch for settlement. If that functionality is not available the request will be handled as an off-line credit request and will be included in the batch for settlement without requesting an authorization first.

If you are using the Terminal Capture SettlementMode, the Credit method can only be used for online purchase return authorization requests when such functionality is available for the given card and merchant. It cannot be used for off-line credit transactions. When using the Credit method in Terminal Capture mode you will need to get the authorization response and include the transaction in the batch to be settled using the PTechManualSettle component.

Manually keyed credit: component.CardNumber = "4444333322221111" component.CardExpMonth = 12 component.CardExpYear = 2025 component.CardEntryDataSource = dsManuallyEntered component.TransactionAmount = "1.00" 'credits $1.00 component.Credit()

Note: Credits are not supported for EBT cards that are of the "Cash Benefits" BenefitType.

The EBT card may be specified by either a CardMagneticStripe returned by a card reader, (Track2 only), or manually entered through the CardNumber. CardExpMonth, and CardExpYear.

The ResponseCode and ResponseText properties indicate whether this transaction was successful.

Force Method (PTechBenefit Component)

Sends a Force (Prior) transaction to the PaymenTech server.

Syntax

void __fastcall Force(String VoiceAuthCode, String VoucherNum);

Remarks

Force (Prior) transactions are typically used when a customer's EBT card was declined or referred, and the merchant has called the call center to receive an authorization code and voucher number. A Force transaction adds the transaction to the current open batch, and the transaction will be settled at the next call to the PTechHostSettle component's BatchRelease method.

The EBT card may be specified by either a CardMagneticStripe returned by a card reader, (Track2 only), or manually entered through the CardNumber. CardExpMonth, and CardExpYear.

The ResponseCode and ResponseText properties indicate whether this transaction was successful.

Manually keyed force: component.CardNumber = "4444333322221111" component.CardExpMonth = 1 component.CardExpYear = 2010 component.TransactionAmount = "1.00" component.Force("123456", "543210987654321") 'values received from the call center

Interrupt Method (PTechBenefit Component)

Interrupt the current method.

Syntax

void __fastcall Interrupt();

Remarks

If there is no method in progress, Interrupt simply returns, doing nothing.

Reset Method (PTechBenefit Component)

Clears all properties to their default values.

Syntax

void __fastcall Reset();

Remarks

This method clears all properties to their default values.

Sale Method (PTechBenefit Component)

Sends a Sale transaction to the host.

Syntax

void __fastcall Sale();

Remarks

A basic EBT sale transaction is similar to a Debit transaction, in that a CardPIN and CardKSN are required in addition to swiped or manually entered Card data. A Sale transaction removes funds from the EBT cardholder's account for the TransactionAmount indicated. This transaction is automatically added to the current open batch, and will be settled after the current batch is released with the PTechHostSettle component.

The EBT card may be specified by either a CardMagneticStripe returned by a card reader, (Track2 only), or manually entered through the CardNumber. CardExpMonth, and CardExpYear.

The ResponseCode and ResponseText properties indicate whether this transaction was successful. For example:

Manually-keyed Cash Benefits transaction with cash back: component.CardEntryDataSource = dsManuallyEntered component.CardNumber = "9999999800002773" component.CardExpMonth = 12 component.CardExpYear = 2028 component.CardPIN = "623F36B53CC18393" component.CardKSN = "000000008F000021" component.BenefitType = btCashBenefits component.TransactionAmount = "25.00" '$20 purchase with $5 cash back component.CashBack = "5.00" component.Sale()

Swiped Food Stamp transaction: component.CardEntryDataSource = dsTrack2 component.CardMagneticStripe = "9999999800002773=28121015432112345678" component.CardPIN = "623F36B53CC18393" component.CardKSN = "000000008F000021" component.BenefitType = btFoodStamps component.TransactionAmount = "25.00" 'Cash back not supported for food stamps! component.Sale()

DataPacketIn Event (PTechBenefit Component)

Fired when receiving a data packet from the transaction server.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String DataPacket;
  DynamicArray<Byte> DataPacketB;
} TibcPTechBenefitDataPacketInEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TibcPTechBenefitDataPacketInEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TibcPTechBenefitDataPacketInEventParams *e);
__property TibcPTechBenefitDataPacketInEvent OnDataPacketIn = { read=FOnDataPacketIn, write=FOnDataPacketIn };

Remarks

This event fires when a packet is received. The entire data packet (including all framing and error detection characters) is contained in the parameter "DataPacket". This parameter may be inspected for advanced troubleshooting, or to extract additional response properties beyond the scope of this component.

DataPacketOut Event (PTechBenefit Component)

Fired when sending a data packet to the transaction server.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String DataPacket;
  DynamicArray<Byte> DataPacketB;
} TibcPTechBenefitDataPacketOutEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TibcPTechBenefitDataPacketOutEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TibcPTechBenefitDataPacketOutEventParams *e);
__property TibcPTechBenefitDataPacketOutEvent OnDataPacketOut = { read=FOnDataPacketOut, write=FOnDataPacketOut };

Remarks

This event fires right before each data packet is sent. The entire data packet (including all framing and error detection characters) is contained in the parameter "DataPacket". This parameter may be inspected for advanced troubleshooting.

Error Event (PTechBenefit Component)

Information about errors during data delivery.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  int ErrorCode;
  String Description;
} TibcPTechBenefitErrorEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TibcPTechBenefitErrorEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TibcPTechBenefitErrorEventParams *e);
__property TibcPTechBenefitErrorEvent OnError = { read=FOnError, write=FOnError };

Remarks

The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing.

ErrorCode contains an error code and Description contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.

SSLServerAuthentication Event (PTechBenefit Component)

Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String CertEncoded;
  DynamicArray<Byte> CertEncodedB;
  String CertSubject;
  String CertIssuer;
  String Status;
  bool Accept;
} TibcPTechBenefitSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TibcPTechBenefitSSLServerAuthenticationEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TibcPTechBenefitSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams *e);
__property TibcPTechBenefitSSLServerAuthenticationEvent OnSSLServerAuthentication = { read=FOnSSLServerAuthentication, write=FOnSSLServerAuthentication };

Remarks

During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.

When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string OK). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.

SSLStatus Event (PTechBenefit Component)

Fired when secure connection progress messages are available.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String Message;
} TibcPTechBenefitSSLStatusEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TibcPTechBenefitSSLStatusEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TibcPTechBenefitSSLStatusEventParams *e);
__property TibcPTechBenefitSSLStatusEvent OnSSLStatus = { read=FOnSSLStatus, write=FOnSSLStatus };

Remarks

The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. This event tracks the progress of the connection.
