How to use Credit Card in B2B

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are using ECO 5 in a b2b scenario. I get this error

"No authorization carried out<br>Use another credit card or payment method"

when I try to create an order with payment type credit card or even Electronic check. Don't know what I'm missing.

I've checked all the settings in xcm, isauseradm and shopadmin but cannot find anything to turn 'authorization' on/off.

Is there is CC number for testing?

Any help is highly appreciated.

Thanks,

Rajiv.

Hi Rajiv,

There is no switch to turn 'on' / 'off' authorizations. If you use payment cards as a payment functionality the code would try to send the request awaiting a response, failing which you receive the error.

To utilise the functionality of payment using credit card in internet sales, configuration of payment card has to be completed in CRM. It can be found in IMG -> CRM -> Basic Functions -> Payment Cards.

SAP doesn't provide the credit card authorization per se and just requests / receives the response of the credit card authorization from an external program. You would have to develop you own solution to interface with the signal from CRM, authorize the credit card and provide the response back to CRM that it can update the B2B ISA of the payment. I also understand that SAP Biller Direct could be utilised for credit card authorizations, though it would still need to be interfaced with a credit card authorization service provider.

I hope this helps.

Cheers,

Ashok.
