Pre-authorize a Credit Card for a Rental Contract
A credit card can be pre-authorized by validating the credit card number and verifying that the funds are available.
Complete the following steps to pre-authorize a credit card for a rental contract:
-
Open a rental contract by selecting Rental > Rental Contract from the main EBMS menu.
-
Select File > Pre-authorize to pre-authorize a credit card without debiting the funds. The following dialog will appear:
-
Enter the appropriate payment information and select the Pre-authorize button. Review the Payment Entry Dialog section of the sales documentation for more details on the payment entry dialog.
-
Select File > Down Payment to debit the credit card immediately. Review the Customer Down Payments section of the sales documentation for more details on processing payments.
EBMS automatically creates a sales order if the options File > Down Payment or File > Pre-authorize are selected.
