Batch Processing

This section contains information about batch processing procedures and the required variables for each response file. Use this integration method to process large numbers of transactions in a batch across multiple accounts by specifying the source key for each transaction in the request.
Conventions
x = Incrementing Sequence Number
Numbers can be skipped, but they must always be greater than the previous file.
Files with older or invalid sequence numbers are ignored.
Sequence Number Max Value = 999999999 (9 digits)
KVP = URL Encoded Key-Value-Pair
Sample: xName=John%20Smith&xAmount=1
Note: Ensure that all values are URL encoded.
Batch Upload Lifecycle
Request
1.Client uploads Request/REQUEST_X.KVP
2.Client uploads Request/PROCESS_X.KVP
3.Batch process is triggered when Request/PROCESS_X.KVP is received
Response
1.Gateway saves Response/RESPONSE_X.KVP
2.Gateway saves Response/COMPLETE_X.KVP
3.Client polls and parses Response/COMPLETE_X.KVP
4.If xStatus=Success then Client downloads and parses Response/RESPONSE_X.KVP
5.Client deletes all files from Response folder
