Subject: WBC POS/EFTPOS Integration to VX690 terminal
Summary:    
Hi Deepak,
I had a few questions on the VX690 terminal. Who would be the best person to talk to?

Questions:
  1. The VX690 has an ethernet terminal. Can I build the integration via TCPIP or do I need to use RS232?
  2. If I need to use Serial, Is this the right cable to use? https://www.amazon.com/HDE-Serial-Ethernet-Rollover-Console/dp/B00979DMSM
  3. The V2.16 documentation (Section 2.3) asks for the install the Verifone supplied USB driver. Where can I get this from?
  4. Instead of RJ45 to Serial, can i use the USB to RS232 port at the back of the terminal?
Thanks for your help.

Hi Sanjay

Unfortunately, you can't use the TCP/IP port since that is in use but you can use the micro USB port which is the prefered approach. We dont think using RS232 is a good idea.

I can ask Shakira about the drivers but I don't think we had to give any to Pronto. They must have used generic drivers but I'll check.

Regards
Deepak

Thanks Shakira and Deepak.

Here is what I need:
The V2.16 documentation (Section 2.3) asks for the install the Verifone supplied USB driver
Developer documentation on how to use the Verifone device to test transactions. Deepak has already sent me the terminal
host simulator and relevant documentation

Regards
Sanjay Singh

We have received the SDK user guides for Westpac EFT Terminal and are working on this integration. Possibly for V11.4 or 11.5 release.

Shakira from Westpac Fiji has sent me the Developer guide for the Verifone device.

I have been able to connect to the Verifone device, however the device is not authenticating credit card details. I had a discussion with Shakita and she has escalated this to her technical team. There seems to be a Bank Configuration authenticate issue that needs to b resolved on the device before we can process transactions.

USB drivers received from Deepak. The verifone unit is now functioning and development has started.

We expect to release this in V12.2 - however, there are still questions about testing this on site as EXTRA supermarket is the only ones planning to use this.

Sanjay, 1:39 PM
Hi Sanjeet, I'm almost done with case L11712.

We don't have a test plan on the case. Will you be able to get a test platform organized with Westpac or Extra?

Link, 1:57 PM
ok let me check

Link, 1:58 PM
I thought WBC had given you the test device

Link, 1:58 PM
as for Extra they are on V9 and will not upgrade anytime soon but I will check

Sanjay, 1:59 PM
Westpac has given me a machine to do development on. I still need you to do UAT with the client

Sanjay, 1:59 PM
If Extra won't upgrade I cannot complete development - should I postpone the development?

Link, 1:59 PM
let me discuss and will update you

?Hi guys,

We have completed development and "system testing" for EFT using the Verifone device for Fiji. Since this isn't a vendor-provided SDK, we can only certify this for the "Verifone VX690". Any other device or changes to this device will need to be tested separately.

The next step will be to set up a terminal at the client's site and perform the following transactions:
  1. ?Sale
  2. Sale and Cash OUT
  3. ?Refund??
?Sanjeet will be in touch regarding User testing.

*** Emails with Westpac Re: TESTING ***

Sanjay Singh <sanjay@linktechnologies.com.au> 08:58 (1 hour ago) to Deepak, Shakira

Hi Deepak

With PCEFTPOS, we were given a TEST Sheet that contained all the possible scenarios. One of the scenarios was a "Signature Verification"

I have implemented this, I cannot get the Device to prompt for signature.

Do you have the instructions on when a signature is required?

Do you have a test sheet I can go through to cover all scenarios so Sanjeet can get signoff on UAT?

Regards
Sanjay Singh

Shakira Mohammed 10:10 (38 minutes ago) to me, Deepak, Shakira

Hi Sanjay

Is it possible to share the test sheet that you do have?

For signature on transactions, if your device does not prompt for signature for foreign card transactions then it has not been enabled on the back end system. I will need your terminal ID details to get vendor to enable it.

Sanjay Singh 10:47 (1 minute ago) to Shakira, Deepak

Hi Shakira,

I am assuming here that Fiji customers may need a Signature Prompt. In that case, will the terminal print the prompt or will the POS need to print the Signature slip?.

With PCEFTPOS, the POS terminal handles all printing, including the Signature prompt and also the EFT receipt which gets printed after the POS Receipt. Will the Verifone print the signature request and receipt or will I need to do this in POS?

Where can I get my terminal ID from? Here is a number that is printed on the receipt header: 100 300 000 171

Also please enable CASH OUT function. When I attempt a CASH-OUT, it says "Not Enabled"

Thanks.

Regards
Sanjay Singh

*** Email from Shakira *** No reply on enabling the CASH-OUT. We will not support CASH OUT in release 12.2
Shakira Mohammed 30 Oct 2020, 13:25 (10 days ago) to me, Deepak, Shakira

Hi Sanjay
Below is from the specification document:
“The terminal shall automatically approve any transaction that requires Signature Verification (Receipt will include the signature line but there will be no prompt on the terminal for Signature Verification). It is the PC/ECR operator’s responsibility to verify the signature.”
I will check with vendor on enabling Cash Out

Hi Shakira,

Did you get the "CASH OUT" configuration changed?

We are publishing a release tomorrow and need to know if we can include this change.

Sanjay Singh

Basic EFT functionality testing has completed in V12.2. Westpac has not enabled "CASH OUT" - therefore attempts to use "CASH OUT" will be prevented by the Terminal.

Also, note that the EFT Terminal expects the cashier to VALIDATE the Signature requirements. See Comments 25 from Westpac.

We will close this case and create a new one when user testing starts.
