ERP Payment Integration Questions

What this category covers

This category covers connecting payments to the system of record so the line-item data already on your invoice travels with the payment. The answers are written to give you the structure of the decision - what has to be true, who decides it, and what to get in writing - rather than a single number that stops being accurate the moment your volume or card mix changes.

Where an answer depends on your own account, it says so and points at the statement line that would tell you. A page cannot know your effective rate, and any page that claims to is guessing.

Why it matters operationally

The data Level 3 needs already exists on your invoice. Whether it reaches the card network is an integration question, not a data one.

The cost of getting this wrong is rarely dramatic. It is a few basis points on every transaction, every month, which is exactly why it goes unexamined for years.

Where operators go wrong

• Buying a connector that transmits Level 2 only, described in marketing as enhanced data.
• Solving acceptance and leaving reconciliation manual.

1 question in this category

• Which ERP systems can send Level 3 data?

  Every major ERP holds the data Level 3 requires, because it is already on the invoice. The question is whether a payment connector exists that reads it and transmits it. Connectors are available for NetSuite, Sage, QuickBooks, Acumatica, Epicor and SAP Business One, though capability varies by product and version. Where no connector exists, the options are a gateway with manual enhanced-data entry or a custom API integration.

This category is still being built out. We keep it linked from the questions hub, but hold it back from search listings until it carries at least 3 published answers — a page with nothing to list is not worth anybody's click.
