Credit Card Merchant # - This number is found in PC Charge Payment Server under Setup > Credit Card Company.  It must be entered exactly as it appears in PCC Payment Server

CC Processor Code - This code is found in the same box as your merchant number in Payment Server.  It will appear like this:  (VISA) in Payment Server.  Enter only this in The General Store - VISA

 

In the PC Charge Security Setup, if the boxes have not been filled in automatically, you must make the entries manually:

Store Name:   MY

Certificate Location:  1

Issued by:  PCChargeDefaultCertificate-CA

Serial Number:  The serial number you copied from the MMC Console

IP Address:  If you are a single user, leave this field as:  127.0.0.1 (see the network setup for Workgroup settings)

PC Charge Directory:  enter it as above

 

These entries must be exact !  Take care to ensure that all words are spelled as above, and all entries are correct.

 

Save your changes and Exit

Now, test your installation by running a credit card sale through The General Store.  If the sale completes normally, your installation is correct.  If you receive errors, you should immediately call our Technical Support group:  863-616-1211

 

Important:  It is absolutely critical that you test your installation by processing a credit card sale and verifying with your processor that the sale has gone through correctly.
