How to

Determine if you need to create a sales receipt or delete the transaction

Open: Customers > Online Cards > Complete Orphaned Card Transactions

Note the Tran Code applied to the transaction.
Log into the Opayo website (MyOpayo (opens in a new tab)) and check whether there is a transaction with the same Tran Code as that you made a note of:
- If there is, the transaction was successfully transmitted to Opayo. You can create a sales receipt for the orphaned transaction.
- If there is not, the transaction failed to reach Opayo. You need to delete the orphaned transaction and enter the receipt again.

Create a sales receipt for an orphan transaction

Open: Customers > Online Cards > Complete Orphaned Card Transactions

Select the transaction.
Click Create Receipt.

The Enter Customer Online Card Receipt window is displayed. The details of the receipt are automatically filled in for you.
Either:
1. Click Save to save the receipt without allocating it.
2. Click Save and Allocate to save the receipt and allocate the amount to the outstanding transaction.
  1. Enter the allocation details.
  A receipt is created for the transaction on the customer account and the transaction is removed from the Orphaned Card Transactions screen.

Delete an orphan transaction

Open: Customers > Online Cards > Complete Orphaned Card Transactions

Select the transaction.
Click Delete.

The transaction is removed from the Orphaned Card Transactions screen. You can now enter the original transaction details again.

What happens

When I have orphaned transactions?

An orphaned card transaction is a transaction that failed to complete due to a loss of connection between Sage 200 and Opayo.

If your system crashes before a receipt is returned from Opayo an orphan transaction is created in Sage 200. You need to investigate whether the transaction details were successfully transmitted and take appropriate action.

One of two possible issues will have occurred and need to be addressed:

Issue	How to identify	Resolution
Transaction details were not successfully transmitted to Opayo.	No transaction details held on Opayo for the given transaction code.	Delete the orphaned transaction record and re-enter the original transaction.
Transaction details successfully transmitted to Opayo but receipt record failed to reach Sage 200.	Transaction details present on Opayo for the given transaction code.	Create a receipt for the orphaned transaction record.
