How do I adjust or finalize an Auth Only transaction?
Resolution
This guide describes two different ways of finalizing (sometimes called "adjusting" or "capturing") an Auth Only transaction.
- Method One: Adjusting the transaction amount.
- Method Two: Without making any changes.
For both methods, please begin by following the steps below:
- Log into the Virtual Terminal
- Go to Batch Management and select Credit Card:
METHOD ONE: Adjusting the transaction amount
This method should be used when you need to make a one-time adjustment to the transaction amount to adjust for shipping charges, or other charges that were unknown at the time of authorization.
- Under Options click Adjust next to the transaction you want to adjust:
- Change your amounts as necessary.
- Click Submit Transaction. Once the page reloads, your Auth Only transaction will now change to "Prior Auth":
METHOD TWO: Without making any changes
This method should be used when you do not need to make a one-time adjustment to the transaction amount.
- Under the "Settle" column, locate and check off the box to every Auth Only transaction you wish to capture.
- Select the Capture Checked Transactions button:
- Click Review complete, capture the selected transactions button. This will finalize the Auth Only transaction.
- Your Auth Only transaction will now appear as a "Prior Auth":
