Output Fields

 
Field Name Notes
<recurring_processing_model_ind>

Currently, for only the Vantiv payment gateway, the value in this field will automatically be set to 2 if your payment gateway or collection group configuration has the Send orderSource as recurring for all transactions option enabled.

Refer to your payment gateway documentation to see if this applies.

Please contact your payment gateway representative for more information.

<proc_field_override> (array)

<transaction_type>

The value that you pass into this field will override the Recurring Options that you set in the Aria application under:

  • Configuration > Payments > Payment Gateways > Chase Paymentech/Vantiv > Gateway Options; and
  • Configuration > Payments > Collection Groups > Chase Paymentech/Vantiv > Collection Group Options.

Currently, only Chase Paymentech and Vantiv support this field. Other payment gateways might not honor all of the allowable values for this field. You will need to check your payment gateway documentation for confirmation.

Aria will use this order of precedence to determine the transaction type:

  1. value passed into this field
  2. collection group configuration
  3. payment gateway configuration
  4. transaction type that you specified in the <recurring_processing_model_ind> field
<proc_3dsecure_data> Not all values for this field apply to all payment gateways. In addition, not all payment gateways support 3DS. The payment gateways documentation identifies payment gateways that support 3DS. Please contact your payment gateway representative for more information about which version of 3DS is supported and other details.
