Submitting Credit (Refund) Transactions

70 07 January 2014 Gateway Developer Guide and Reference
Set the value of ORIGID to the PNREF value returned for the original transaction. (PayPal
Manager reports display the PNREF as the Transaction ID.) If you do not specify an amount,
the amount of the original transaction is credited to the cardholder.
Non-Referenced Credits Allowed
When non-referenced credits are allowed, credit transactions are permitted in any amount up
to the transaction limit for the credit card account that you specify. To submit a credit
transaction when non-referenced credits are allowed, you must pass values for the following
parameters:
ACCT
EXPDATE
AMT
NOTE: The default security setting for Gateway accounts is Allow non-referenced credits =
No. Sending the
ORIGID is the preferred method for performing credit transactions, as
described in
Non-Referenced Credits Not Allowed. Using the ACCT, EXPDATE, or
AMT parameters for such restricted accounts leads to the return of RESULT value 117
(failed the security check). To help reduce fraud, PayPal recommends that you do not
activate non-referenced credits unless you have a business reason. For information on
configuring your security settings, see PayPal Manager online help.
Example
The following is an example credit transaction string (non-referenced credits allowed):
TRXTYPE=C&TENDER=C&PARTNER=PayPal&VENDOR=SuperMerchant&USER=SuperMerchant&P
WD=x1y2z3&ACCT=5555555555554444&EXPDATE=1215&AMT=123.00&VERBOSITY=HIGH
Fields Copied From the Original Transaction Into the Credit Transaction
The following fields are copied from the original transaction into the credit transaction (if they
exist in the original transaction). If you provide a new value for any of these parameters when
submitting the credit transaction, the new value is used. (Exceptions are ACCT, EXPDATE, and
SWIPE. These parameters retain their original values.)
NOTE: These fields are not copied for referenced credits: TAXAMT, TAXEXEMPT, DUTYAMT,
FREIGHTAMT, and (for American Express only) DESC4.
Parameter Description
ORIGID (Required by some transaction types) ID of the original transaction referenced.
The PNREF parameter returns this ID, and it appears as the Transaction ID in
PayPal Manager reports.
Limitations: 12 case-sensitive alphanumeric characters.
