Moreover, you can add other actions to the operation in the detailed view, such as postings or credits. If an operation was processed using card, account or device data, you can disable these in the detailed view. If you wish to enable the card, account or device data again, you must remove the credit card from the negative list.

Proceed as follows to open the detailed view of an operation:

  1. Activate values in the selection fields.
  2. Click on the "Search and Filter" button.

Moreover, you can add other actions to the operation in the detailed view.

Details on Action and Status

Each payment process (operation) can include one or more actions. Each action has a status, e.g. indicating success / failure of this status.

The actions may vary on your implementation and the paymethod involved.

Details on 3-D Secure transactions

For payments which are authenticated with 3-D Secure you may see details like this:

The values shown above depend on 3-D Secure version used for authentication and the card scheme.

Here are some details:

ECI value

The ECI value stands for "Electronic Commerce Indicator" and detailed overview can be found here: ECI Codes.

3-D Version (Directory Server)

The Directory Server is managed by the card scheme (Mastercard, VISA, American Express, ...) where each credit card issuer isregistered and can be identified by the BIN (Bank Identication Number).

The Directory Server "talks" to the Access Control Server which finally refers to the credit card issuer system.

For 3-D Secure processing all parties (scheme, issuer and PSP Computop) have to agree on the same 3-D Secure version.

3-D Version (Processing)

This is the 3-D Secure version which has been agreed by all parties finally for 3-D Secure authentication.

It may happen that a specific issuer is not supporting 3-D Secure (Version 2.1.0, 2.2.0) by now and then automatically a fallback to Version 1.0 will happen.
