In order to process credit cards manually, at least one dedicated Credit Card Terms record must be created in the Terms Manager. Normally only one credit card Terms code is required, as other information in the system can be used to determine the card type being processed.
Manual Credit Card Terms are created using an automated processing code of 1 in the Terms record. The Automated Processing Code in the Terms record is used by the system when automatically placing a hold on all credit card orders. Manual Credit Card Orders are put on a 1 hold as they are entered into the system.
