3rd Party Integrations

  

POS - ETS Credit Card Processing

  • Updated the ETS 2.55 integration to prompt you if you want to issue a refund if a void fails, with a warning that doing so could cause a double-credit.

    Use Case: Previously, Credit Card tickets that were closed to credit card, and later deleted (or voided within 24 hours) would automatically cancel the charge to the Member/Guest’s credit card.  After 24 hours, however, the refund had to be issued through ETS.  Now, if after 24 hours, the ticket can no longer be deleted, an option to refund the amount will exist (as a credit amount of the original ticket), that will refund the original ticket amount by creating a credit (vs a void) of the original ticket.  In the event a Club has multiple people working on this, it is possible that a credit could be issued twice, so ensure to use care when utilizing this new feature.

  • Updated the Lodging Link interface to support a registry value to override the send timeout for communication with the device.

    Use CaseA club utilizing a Lodging link (hardware device between the POS system and a 3rd party hotel system), now has the option to customize the timeout of the device (3 seconds for instance), prior to issuing a failed response.  This allows individual clubs needing longer processing times with this device to modify their individual Club settings, rather than globally enforce a universal time that may not be appropriate for all clubs.
