TSYSLevel2 Class

Properties   Methods   Events   Config Settings   Errors  

The TSYSLevel2 class is a tool used to create Level2 Corporate Purchasing Card addendum aggregates, which can then be passed to the TSYSSETTLE class and settled.

Syntax

dpaymentssdk.Tsyslevel2

Remarks

The type of addendum created by this class depends upon the value of the CardType property. If the CardType is tctVisa or tctMasterCard the addendum created by the GetAddendum method will be sent as part of ODG41 group (Tags: "OAI", "OA", and "PON"). Properties valid for these CardTypes are: IsTaxExempt, LocalSalesTax, and PurchaseOrderNumber. The following example illustrates how to add a Visa/MasterCard Level2 addendum to a detail record in the settlement:

TSYSECommerce.Authorize() TSYSSettle.DetailRecordCount = 1 TSYSSettle.DetailAggregate[0] = TSYSECommerce.GetDetailAggregate() TSYSLevel2.CardType = tctVisa TSYSLevel2.IsTaxExempt = False TSYSLevel2.LocalSalesTax = "423" // $4.23 TSYSLevel2.PurchaseOrderNumber = "12345678901234567" TSYSSettle.DetailRecords[0].AddendumAggregate = TSYSLevel2.GetAddendum();

If the CardType is tctAmericanExpress, the addendum created will be Group 21 (ODG21). Only the properties prefixed with "Amex" are applicable in this case. These include: AmexCardholderReference, AmexChargeDescriptor, AmexSalesTax, AmexShippedToZip, and AmexSupplierNumber. The following example shows how to add an American Express Level2 addendum to a detail record in the settlement:

TSYSECommerce.Authorize() TSYSSettle.DetailRecordCount = 2 TSYSSettle.DetailAggregate[1] = TSYSECommerce.GetDetailAggregate() TSYSLevel2.CardType = tctAmericanExpress TSYSLevel2.AmexCardholderReference = "INV12345678" TSYSLevel2.AmexChargeDescriptor = "Test transaction" TSYSLevel2.AmexSalesTax = "373" TSYSLevel2.AmexShippedToZip = "90210" TSYSLevel2.AmexSupplierNumber = "SUP244568" TSYSSettle.DetailRecords[1].AddendumAggregate = TSYSLevel2.GetAddendum();

Note that while Level2 addendum data is only applicable to corporate purchasing cards, you may send Level2 data for all Visa, Master Card, and American Express cards if you wish.

Note: If you are attempting to settle American Express transactions which include Level2 commercial card data, and you receive an error indicating that the "Record Type is missing or invalid" for the Detail Record containing that transaction, the problem is that your merchant account is not set up to settle American Express commercial cards.

Config Method (Tsyslevel2 Class)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

public String config(String configurationString);

Remarks

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

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, 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.

GetAddendum Method (Tsyslevel2 Class)

Returns a Level2 Purchasing card addendum based on the specified CardType .

Syntax

public String getAddendum();

Remarks

The type of addendum created by this class depends upon the value of the CardType property. If the CardType is tctVisa or tctMasterCard the addendum created by the GetAddendum method will be sent as part of ODG41 group (Tags: "OAI", "OA", and "PON"). Properties valid for these CardTypes are: IsTaxExempt, LocalSalesTax, and PurchaseOrderNumber. The following example illustrates how to add a Visa/MasterCard Level2 addendum to a detail record in the settlement:

If the CardType is tctAmericanExpress, the addendum created will be Group 21 (ODG21). Only the properties prefixed with "Amex" are applicable in this case. These include: AmexCardholderReference, AmexChargeDescriptor, AmexSalesTax, AmexShippedToZip, and AmexSupplierNumber. The following example shows how to add an American Express Level2 addendum to a detail record in the settlement:

TSYSECommerce.Authorize() TSYSSettle.DetailRecordCount = 2 TSYSSettle.DetailAggregate[1] = TSYSECommerce.GetDetailAggregate() TSYSLevel2.CardType = tctAmericanExpress TSYSLevel2.AmexCardholderReference = "INV12345678" TSYSLevel2.AmexChargeDescriptor = "Test transaction" TSYSLevel2.AmexSalesTax = "373" TSYSLevel2.AmexShippedToZip = "90210" TSYSLevel2.AmexSupplierNumber = "SUP244568" TSYSSettle.DetailRecords[1].AddendumAggregate = TSYSLevel2.GetAddendum();

Config Settings (Tsyslevel2 Class)

The class accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

Base Config Settings

BuildInfo:   Information about the product's build.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the product's build.

GUIAvailable:   Whether or not a message loop is available for processing events.

In a GUI-based application, long-running blocking operations may cause the application to stop responding to input until the operation returns. The class will attempt to discover whether or not the application has a message loop and, if one is discovered, it will process events in that message loop during any such blocking operation.

In some non-GUI applications, an invalid message loop may be discovered that will result in errant behavior. In these cases, setting GUIAvailable to false will ensure that the class does not attempt to process external events.

LicenseInfo:   Information about the current license.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a class is using. It will return the following information:

  • Product: The product the license is for.
  • Product Key: The key the license was generated from.
  • License Source: Where the license was found (e.g., RuntimeLicense, License File).
  • License Type: The type of license installed (e.g., Royalty Free, Single Server).
  • Last Valid Build: The last valid build number for which the license will work.
MaskSensitive:   Whether sensitive data is masked in log messages.

In certain circumstances it may be beneficial to mask sensitive data, like passwords, in log messages. Set this to true to mask sensitive data. The default is true.

This setting only works on these classes: AS3Receiver, AS3Sender, Atom, Client(3DS), FTP, FTPServer, IMAP, OFTPClient, SSHClient, SCP, Server(3DS), Sexec, SFTP, SFTPServer, SSHServer, TCPClient, TCPServer.

UseDaemonThreads:   Whether threads created by the class are daemon threads.

If set to True (default), when the class creates a thread, the thread's Daemon property will be explicitly set to True. When set to False, the class will not set the Daemon property on the created thread. The default value is True.

UseInternalSecurityAPI:   Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation.

When set to false, the class will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable.

Setting this configuration setting to true tells the class to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.

This setting is set to false by default on all platforms.
