Use Credit Card Lookup
Notes
General
Information
Use this key when credit authorization (CA) is not performed at all, or is performed
by a separate CA machine. This key
cannot be used with 3700 Credit Authorization/
Electronic Draft Capture (CA/EDC) operations.
If [Credit Card Lookup] is programmed to post to a Property Management System
(PMS), your UWS may be programmed to automatically query the PMS computer
and determine if this card has been accepted.
Example
At the end of the meal, Samantha presents the check to her customer. The customer
gives her a credit card. Samantha prepares a credit card voucher on the credit card
imprinter. She picks up the check on the system and uses [Credit Card Lookup] to
store the credit card number on the guest check. She does not enter a payment
amount. Samantha returns the check, credit card, and voucher to the customer.
When she retrieves the check, she will use [Credit Card Recall].
