web interface CC charging

    I have a wierd issue my accounting department wants me to fix if possible.

    We're running OG 3.2.5 and using PayflowPro to process the CC transactions.

    The problem is, they batch the days transactions at wierd times like 7PM PST or 10PM PST. So if one of my customers decides to pay an invoice or something after that time, it's on the next banking day, not on the one the transaction went through on. So the reports from PayFlowPro/Verisign don't balance with the bank deposit reports.

    I'm currently looking for a way to use one of the other clearing houses listed on PayFlowPro that batches each transaction as it's approved.

    Until then, accounting has asked me to disable the ability to charge CC's through OptiGold from like 7PM PST till Midnight every day.

    Is there a way to do that through OG without disabling the customer web site access altogether?


    Thanks,
    Chuck

    First, make a secondary html file that says the cc processing is down for whatever reason and save it as *.down then rename the existing file to *.up and then make a batch file that will copy the .down file to the working file at 7 PM and then another batch at 7 AM which will copy the .up file to rename the working file.

    Cool, thanks for the idea.

    Anyone got any ideas on processing? Having same issues with PayFlowpro, or using something else?

    Thanks,
    Chuck

    You may want to contact VeriSign to see if you can set your account to settle at a specific time. As far as I know though, they do it at midnight (eastern) normally.
