Void not working - AIM Java - Valid referenced transaction ID required

morgan_code — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 21:47:14 GMT

Hi,

I am using AIM with Java to integrate, and am getting the following error whenever I try to process a void:

'A valid referenced transaction ID is required.'

As far as I can tell, I am submitting this information correctly.

        Transaction voidTransaction = merchant.createAIMTransaction(TransactionType.VOID, null);
        voidTransaction.setCreditCard(creditCard);
        voidTransaction.setTransactionId(transactionId);

result = (Result<Transaction>) merchant.postTransaction(voidTransaction);

The id being submitted is a 10-digit numeric in the form of a String (eg, "2168106867")

I have also tried putting the amount of the prior charge instead of null, with no different result.

If it makes any difference, here are the related bits for the setup:

        creditCard = CreditCard.createCreditCard();
        creditCard.setCardType(getCardType(cardNum));
        creditCard.setCreditCardNumber(cardNum);
        creditCard.setExpirationMonth(expMonth);
        creditCard.setExpirationYear(expYear);

        Merchant merchant = Merchant.createMerchant(Environment.SANDBOX,
            apiLoginID, transactionKey);
        merchant.setDeviceType(net.authorize.DeviceType.PERSONAL_COMPUTER_BASED_TERMINAL);
        merchant.setMarketType(net.authorize.MarketType.RETAIL);

Thanks in advance for any help.

Are you running in test mode or live mode?

As far as I can tell, it's live mode, on my developer account. I get 'real' transaction IDs back, not zeros. It's not working on the client's production account in live mode either.

I did try changing the Merchant invocation parameter to Environment.PRODUCTION, but that resulted in '0' being returned for the transaction IDs of the charges.

Thanks.

For CP it x_ref_trans_id, so it might not work with the SDK

How do I set that field? Would the same be true for a linked credit?

Thanks!

Try, not sure if it will work. And yes, same for linked credit.

voidTransaction.setMerchantDefinedField("x_ref_trans_id", "yourtransactionID");

Thanks very much. It works fine for a void-- can't test an unlinked credit without a Production account.

I appreciate your help!
