Service Parameters

 

Purpose: The Administrator can configure permissions within the Service Parameters page from the Service Parameters menu. Let's explore the available configurations and delve into the details regarding these settings.



Action:

Select Users, select a particular user, and then select Service Parameters, based on the products used by the merchant choose Yes or No to a particular access rights and limits.

Save Changes once done.

Keep session alive – The system has a default session timeout of 5 minutes. If the logged-in session remains idle, the user will receive a notification that their session is about to expire. The Administrator can configure the session settings to allow the session to remain active for as long as the user is logged in.

Currency – Currencies available will be determined per Acquirer and according to the merchant’s agreement.

Default Currency – The default currency is set on a per - Acquirer basis.

Regarding reconciliations, when the Administrator accesses the reconciliations tab, they can configure whether reports and reconciliations can be emailed to the user. To enable this feature, navigate to 'Email report to merchant' and select 'Yes' from the dropdown menu. Similarly, navigate to 'Email recon to merchant' and select 'Yes' from the dropdown. If the Administrator prefers to restrict user access to reports or reconciliations, they can leave the Reconciliation tab unchanged.

View All Transactions – Once configured, this parameter enables a user to access and view all transactions generated by all users. Given that DiVert primarily functions by generating payment links, this feature grants user’s visibility into transactions created by all users. It's important to note that this parameter may vary depending on the iVeri solution in use. To configure this parameter, navigate to the ‘View All Transactions’ tab from the dropdown, select ‘Yes’.

E-mail Report – This e-mail report refers to trading on a specific product and varies from the Reconciliation report which provides a view of a settlement period. To configure this parameter, navigate to the ‘Email Report’ tab from the dropdown, select ‘Yes’.

Refund Amount Limit – Here the Administrator can configure and restrict if required, the Refund amount limit for this user. Please note that this configuration only applies if the user is granted permission to perform Subsequent transactions. We will cover this in a bit more detail, later on in this video.

Finally, to ensure that all service parameters for the user have been configured and applied, click on the 'Save Changes' button.

Service Functions


Purpose –  Once the user has successfully set up the Service Parameters, the subsequent task involves configuring the Service Functions tailored to the user's needs. These functions enable the Administrator to accurately assign the user suitable permissions for executing designated tasks or accessing particular transactional data within the BackOffice system. 


It's crucial to emphasize that permissions can differ based on the specific iVeri Solutions utilized by the Merchant. The Administrator's configurations for the user here dictates the accessible functions. In this instance, we'll set permissions for a user on DiVert. However, it's noteworthy that certain functionalities are generic and remain consistent across multiple iVeri Products.

To configure these functions, locate and select the Service Functions Tab.

It's crucial to emphasize that permissions can differ based on the specific iVeri Solutions utilized by the Merchant. The Administrator's configurations for the user here dictates the accessible functions. In this instance, we'll set permissions for a user on DiVert. However, it's noteworthy that certain functionalities are generic and remain consistent across multiple iVeri Products.

Before granting permissions to a user, it is imperative that the Administrator understands which permissions would be crucial to the role for each user profile.

Selecting the DiVert tickbox, as shown, will configure all functionalities listed under the DiVert tab. This encompasses Transactions, enabling the creation of transactions, performing Subsequent transactions, allowing access to reports, configuring application settings, and Customizing transaction forms. Should you wish to adjust specific permissions, simply deselect the boxes corresponding to the functionalities you wish to restrict the user from accessing.

For Reconciliations – Determine if the user should have viewing and downloading privileges for reconciliations.

For Configure – Decide if the user should be able to blacklist a card, modify default profile parameters, or access Visa Checkout Management.

For View – Consider if the user should be able to conduct Transaction Lookups using identifiers to search for specific transactions.

 For Transaction History – Determine if the user should have the ability to download the Transaction History for the last 6 months.

 Ensure the permissions assigned are accurate. Click on the ‘Save Changes’ tab to apply the configured permissions to the user profile.

Save Changes once completed.



 Application Parameters


Purpose – Once the user has successfully configured the Service Functions, the next step involves tailoring the Application Parameters for the user. This configuration enables the Administrator to customize Transaction Types per Application ID and per iVeri Solution. For instance, consider a large car rental merchant with multiple branches, each assigned a unique Application ID. The Administrator can specify which Application IDs the user will have access to and which transaction types they may execute. It's important to note that not all transaction types listed may be applicable depending on the iVeri solution. If the user needs to conduct transactions in both Test and Live environments, the Administrator must configure the Application IDs and Transaction types accordingly for both modes.


Action:

To configure the Application Parameters, start by clicking the tickbox as indicated for the relevant Application ID. Then, proceed to click on the Application ID itself. This action will expand the dropdown menu for Transaction types. From there, select the Transaction Types the user will be authorized to perform by ticking off the corresponding checkboxes.

If there are multiple products and several Application IDs, the Administrator must repeat this process for each product and Application ID assigned to the user.

Save Changes once complete.

A pop-up notification will appear; click 'OK' to confirm the reset.

The following notification will appear on a successful password change.

E-mail address to send confirmation to -  Here, the user can choose whether the email confirmation is sent to a specific email address or to the user who created the transaction request. By default, the confirmation is sent to the user who initiated the transaction. To specify a different email address, deselect the checkbox and enter the desired email address.

E-mail confirmation to cardholder – Here, the user can choose whether to send an email confirmation to the cardholder after a successful transaction. Select ‘Yes’ from the dropdown menu if you want the cardholder to receive email notifications.

E-mail address to send confirmation from – When a successful transaction is processed, the system will utilise the e-mail address captured here by the user to send the e-mail confirmations to. This e-mail address will not be utilized when a payment link is created and sent to the cardholder. The defaulted e-mail address will be used as captured during the onboarding process from the Acquirer.

E-mail payment request copy to merchant – Should the merchant want a copy of the transaction requests that have been created, from the dropdown, the user will select ‘Yes’.

E-mail address to send payment request copy to – Here the user can select the e-mail address they would like the payment request copies to be forwarded to.

Message on payment page – When the cardholder interacts with the secure payment page, this is an illustration of the message that will display. It is important to mention that the information between the dollar signs is automatically populated based on the information captured during the transaction request creation. This information should not be altered and must be left untouched. Apart from the information within the dollar signs, the user can customize the message that will display for the cardholder.

Subject Line to Cardholder – This refers to the subject line of the email notification containing the payment link that is received by the cardholder. The subject line should be concise and clearly identify the merchant to the cardholder. Please note that if the user completes the "Order Description" field while creating a transaction request, this will override the default subject line set in the application settings. In other words, whatever is entered in the "Order Description" will appear as the subject line in the email sent to the cardholder.

Content of e-mail request to payment This example shows the content included in the email sent to the cardholder requesting payment. Please note that the content between the dollar signs will automatically populate based on the details provided when creating the transaction request and should not be altered. The same goes for the hyperlink directing the cardholder to the secure payment page.

Users can also customize the default image that appears in the email notification. By selecting the insert image icon, users can insert the image URL from their website. Additionally, users can use the available settings to adjust the layout of the message sent to the cardholder. These configuration options apply to all email notifications in the application settings.

Confirmation email to merchant –  This confirmation is received by the merchant only upon a successful transaction, provided that email notifications have been configured. The e-mail will contain pertinent details related to the transaction. As previously mentioned, the information between the dollar signs will be automatically populated and should not be altered.

Confirmation to Cardholder – This is an email confirmation that the cardholder will receive for a successfully processed transaction. This notification can be customized, except for the information contained within the dollar signs, which should not be altered.

Link to Merchants Terms and conditions and Terms and Conditions message – We will address both fields simultaneously. Merchants with a website can insert the URL linking to their Terms and Conditions. Merchants without a website can manually enter their Terms and Conditions in plain text. When entering Terms and Conditions manually, ensure all commas are removed from the text, as their presence will prevent the changes from being saved. Once successfully captured, the Terms and Conditions will appear on the secure payment page. The cardholder must accept the Terms and Conditions by ticking the checkbox to complete the payment process.

Payment Session Timeout (seconds) – This field specifies how long a payment session remains active before timing out. By default, the timeout is set to 5 minutes, or 300 seconds. If the merchant wishes to extend the session timeout, they should enter the desired duration in seconds.

Prefixes – The prefixes section is defaulted and can be skipped.
