Procedures and Reporting for Credit Cards
Be sure to close Batches on a regular basis!
The system can hold a maximum of 999 electronic payment tranactions in the system at one time. The recommendation
is to hold no more than 250 transactions in a single batch at any time - especially if the batch close is transmitted over
a dial-up (modem) connection! It is imperative that the restaurant performs a Batch Close on a regular basis, so that
this maximum is not reached! SICOM recommends that you close a Batch on a daily basis right before the Daily Close
is performed.
Clear Batch
To clear a batch, first enter the batch number in the text box to the right and then click Clear Batch. Pressing
this button will CLEAR all of the transactions and data from the system, and your credit card device. The cannot
be undone! You will NOT receive payment from the bank for these transactions if cleared.
This option is only available to your System Administrator and should ONLY be used if directed by your your
System Administrator, your Merchant Services/Payment Processor, or SICOM Support.
