Deferred authorization of payments

Deferred credit/debit card payments are entered in the same manner as if you were using immediate authorization. When a deferred transaction is saved (by clicking OK), the word DEFER displays in the Authorize field. If you select the Deferred Authorization option, credit/debit card transactions are deferred until you submit them.

Warning!  

Do not accidentally enter any data in the Authorize field. When entering payment information, the Authorize field is empty. It remains empty until you save the transaction, then it populates with the word DEFER to indicate that it is batched for authorization. However, you might need to authorize a payment through a credit card machine or by calling the merchant bank, so iMIS allows you to manually enter authorization codes for these circumstances. However, keep in mind that if you do enter information in this field, iMIS assumes that it is a manually entered authorization code.
