Troubleshooting Credit Card Results From Mercury Payments

Is the receipt the only place we log responses?

No there is information on the transactions tab of the payment screen as well. You can also double click on the transaction to get this information. (from Craig in Programming)

Errors and Behaviors Explained

It is important to notice some subtle differences in the messages that we see. There are some in ALL CAPS. These messages seem to be coming from Mercury Payments normally. The ones that are in ProperCase seem to be coming from DataCap. Please see the descriptions with each error to get more specific information.

So what if your slips act differently, should you be worried. Probably not as there are some customizations to the behavior of credit card slips. Please see this article for more information on how this is setup.

This is an error message that shows on the slip reciept. I think this comes from Mercury. AP means authorization. I don't see the message in data caps “DSIClientX Interface Spec V04.23 - 20090529.pdf” document. What does AP mean in AP not captured? There is a CaptureStatus of Captured or Not Captured. This is in section 13.01 listed under Transaction Response under XML Responses.
