Daily Closing Process

On a daily basis, the Web Payment Service automatically executes a closing process for the transactions performed by the Merchant.

This process generates three results for Merchant: a text file called MMPTran.txt with the authorized payment transactions, a file text called logfile.txt with all the existing data in the system regarding the transactions performed during the processing day, regardless of whether they were approved, rejected or incomplete, and a .pdf report with the authorized transactions. The returns can be included in this report if requested by the merchant.

This process is scheduled to be performed each labor day at 3:00 PM, the time of the close of transactions. The process that generates the .pdf report and the text files starts approximately at 5:30 PM.

These files generated by the daily closing are sent to the EVERTEC server in conformity with the communication protocol selected by the merchant for their retrieval.

The following sections illustrate the format for each of the files generated at the closing
