Verbosity: Viewing Processor-Specific Transaction Results
Changing the Verbosity Setting
A
Table A.2 shows the increments that are possible on basic TRANSSTATE values.
Changing the Verbosity Setting
Setting the Default Verbosity Level for All Transactions
Contact PayPal Customer Service to set your account’s VERBOSITY setting to LOW
or MEDIUM for all transaction requests.
Setting the Verbosity Level on a Per-Transaction Basis
To specify a setting for Verbosity that differs from your account’s current setting, include
the VERBOSITY=<value> name-value pair in the transaction request, where <value> is LOW
or MEDIUM.
TABLE A.2 TRANSSTATE increments
Increment Meaning
+100 No client acknowledgment (ACK) is received (=status 0 in V2), for example, 106
is TRANSSTATE 6. Transactions in this range do not settle.
For transactions in TRANSSTATE 106, use Auto Resettle in PayPal Manager’s
Transaction Terminal to submit them for settlement or void them using a manual
Void. See PayPal Manager Online Help for details on using PayPal Manager.
+200 The host process never receives ACK from the transaction broker (or backend
payment server). A transaction with a TRANSSTATE of +200 is basically in limbo
and will not be settled.
+1000 Voided transactions. Any TRANSSTATE of +1000 (for example, 1006) means the
transaction was settle pending. However, it was voided either through the API,
PayPal Manager or PayPal Customer Service.
