Running and Expected Results

When the components are installed, configured, and started, copy the electronic payments file set (the .DAT and .EOF files) to the Gateway source folder. Gateway picks up the files from the source folder and processes them.

The electronic payment files are included in a compressed file in the check artifact container and can be located at: share/artifacts. After the compressed file is extracted, the files are located in extract_directory/sample-data/ftm/check/v409/Sample_ICL_Data/.

For more information, see Getting the files from the artifacts container for your FTM offering and the related artifacts container contents section for your offering.

During ingestion, the Gateway Server opens a business day, if one has not already been previously opened. To move the data through the system, the business day must be activated. Activating the business day results in the file being revalidated and the batches are marked as LOADED. When a batch is marked LOADED, the Transaction Server sends messages to other components based on the scheduler XML to process the work.

As work progresses through the system, the inbound batches and processing batches pages in Control Center indicate what processing is complete. States that are complete have a green check mark. Some states might show an in progress indicator where there is additional work to be done. For example, when work is sent to Payment Repair and there are items that need to be repaired, REPAIRED shows an in progress indicator until all items have been repaired for that batch. When a batch becomes BALANCED, it is sent to Distribution. Outbound processing starts either when Distribution reaches its deadline or when the outbound transmission is manually built and released using the outbound transmissions page in Control Center.

Note: In progress indicators are not currently available for DUP_DETECTED, ISN_ALLOCATED, CPCS_EXTRACTED, or scheduled ENTRY_ALLOCATED, ICRE_EXTRACTED, MCRE_EXTRACTED.

Note: On the missing image options page, leave the default of process file(s) based on the missing image threshold definitions selected.
