In order to create a connector configuration go to Space > Payment Configuration > Connectors.
A connector configuration links the characteristics of the payment methods to the capabilities of your
processor (i. e. not every payment method can be processed by every payment processor. Some processor
can only process certain payment methods offsite respectively only onsite).
The available settings depend very highly on the capabilities of the connector and the
characteristics of the payment method.
In the payment method configuration you can generally specify the following settings:
-
Activate and deactivate the connector configuration. A deactivate connector configuration is not considered for
authorizing transactions. A deactivated configuration can be activated again.
-
The order in which the connectors are applied to transactions.
-
The conditions which gets applied on the connector. This allows to control under which circumstances the connector
will be used.
-
Restrict the connector to a set of space views.
-
The authorization email template and the invoice email template.
-
The invoice template which is applied for transactions of this connector.
-
Connector specific settings such as fraud settings.
In order to link your configured payment method to the processor you can create for every
of you intended cases a separate connector configuration.
Example
Use different terminals based on a specific criteria
If you want to use a different processor based on some transaction criteria (i.e. the transaction amount)
you can create multiple configurations and then apply the conditions in the respective
connector configuration.
