Synchronize Cards

Form ID: (CA206000)

You use this form to synchronize new credit cards registered to the Authorize.Net processing center with MYOB Advanced. When you synchronize cards, customer-specific payment methods are created with the entered data. This form is accessible to only users assigned to the AR Admin or System Administrator role (or both roles).

Note: This form appears in the system if the Integrated Card Processing feature has been enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form.

Form Toolbar

The form toolbar includes standard and form-specific buttons and commands. For the list of standard buttons, see Form Toolbar and More Menu. The form-specific commands are listed in the following table.

Button Description
Load Card Data

Loads data on customer profiles and customer payment profiles in Authorize.Net that are absent in MYOB Advanced.

When you select a processing center in the Processing Center box and click this button, the system checks the state of the Allow Saving Payment Profiles check box on the Processing Centers (CA205000) form for the processing center. If the Allow Saving Payment Profiles check box is cleared, the system displays an error message and does not load card data. If the check box is selected, the system loads the data, including the customer profile ID and customer ID, that it has found in the selected processing center and that should be matched to a customer in MYOB Advanced.

When this form is opened again and the same processing center is selected, the table will display the data that had been loaded the last time this button was clicked.

Process

Creates a customer payment method in MYOB Advanced for each row you have selected (by selecting the Included check box) in the table. The system checks the record of the customer specified in the Customer ID column of the table on this form and the record matched to the payment profile and determines its customer class. For the customer class of this customer, if Never is selected in the Save Payment Profiles box on the Customer Classes (AR201000) form, the system displays an error message and does not save the payment profile.

Customer payment methods can be viewed on the Customer Payment Methods (AR303010) form.

Process All Creates customer payment methods in MYOB Advanced for all rows in the table. Customer payment methods can be viewed on the Customer Payment Methods form.
