Use this procedure to prepare to authorize credit cards that are submitted for the payment of sales orders. When a credit card payment is authorized, the credit card holder's name, billing address, credit card number, and available credit are verified. The customer's available credit is also reduced by the amount of the sales order. When the order is ready for invoicing and payment, the credit card charge is processed and the customer's credit card is billed.
You can set up credit card authorizations to be completed by the Payment Services for Microsoft Dynamics ERP payment service or by other payment services for which integrations are available.
Note
You can use only one payment service at a time in each legal entity.
