Are you talking about a merchant defined fields?

Since it will not be save on authorize.net, it probably could be anything.

I'm looking for some id (a unique id that my application is generating) that is returned by authorize.net so that I can associate which user has posted at what time, when multiple users are posting payments.

Thanks.

So yes, you can just pass somthing like rm_uniqueId=[uniqueID] and it will return it back on the response.
