Closing affects the whole merchant

AcquirerSyncronisation closes the period for all the merchant's terminals and acquirers, not just your ECR or terminal.

  • Choose the period with POIReconciliationID when you use PreviousReconciliation. Leave it out to get the last closed period. Don't send it with AcquirerSyncronisation.
  • Totals come per card brand and acquirer, and per transaction type.
  • Don't count cash twice. CashBack and CashAdvance are already included in Debit. CashDeposit is already included in Credit.

Automatic or on demand
