Transaction Codes


Transaction Status Codes

The status of a transaction will change depending on the following factors:

  1. Was the transaction accepted or rejected for processing?
  2. Which part of the status cycle the transaction is in?

 

The status cycle for a typical ACH transaction is Ready > Settling > Funded. The status cycle for a typical credit card transaction is Ready > Settled. After being sent out by Forte for processing, the status may change to one of the following:

Status Description

The customer's payment was authorized. To complete the sale, the item must be captured from the transaction's detail page.

Complete eCheck verification was performed and the results were positive (POS) or unknown (UNK).
Declined Transaction was declined for reasons detailed in Response Code and Response Description.
Failed eCheck verification was performed and the results were negative (NEG) or the transaction failed for reasons detailed in the Response Code and Response Description.

E55 INVALID TOKEN

Specified token was invalid, could not be located, or may have been deleted. This error can be caused by one of hte following issues on the Merchant side:

  • Client Token Transactions - For client token transactions where neither payment fields nor a payment token were specified, the client record does not have a default payment method matching the transaction type. Set a default payment method for the transaction type or send the paymethod token in the message.

  • Payment Token Transactions - For payment token transactions where no client token is specified, the payment token must be clientless. There is no client associated with the payment token. It’s a Null/0 in the customer token column in the database. Refer to Understanding Tokens for more details.

  • Both Client and Payment Tokens Present - For transactions with client and payment tokens, the specified payment token is not associated with the client or is clientless. There is no client associated with the client or payment token. It’s a Null/0 in the customer token column in the database. Refer to Understanding Tokens for more details.

Transaction Return Codes

Forte uses NACHA specification return codes that indicate whether the consumer portion of the payment has been returned or rejected. Some common returns are a closed bank account, invalid bank account, insufficient funds, or a dispute. If a payment is unsuccessful, Forte usually receives the return message from the ACH network within 2 to 4 business days of payment submission. For more information on return codes, please refer to the latest NACHA guide which can be found at http://www.nacha.org (subscription required).
