In Sandbox - pre-auth using zip 46282 to force decline

[SAHeath]

While testing in the sandbox, I put through a sales transaction using a pre-auth code, but also using the 46282 zip to force a decline transaction.  The transaction came back successful.  Will an pre-auth code always override the use of the 46282 zip to force a declined transaction?

Hello @SAHeath

Which card brand did you use, and was a transaction id returned?

Richard,

    I used AMEX brand, and yes, a transaction ID was returned.

Thanks...

@SAHeath, do you get the same result using a Visa card?

[SAHeath]

Richard,

     I attempted another transaction using a VISA, and recieved the same result.  An approval with a Trans ID returned.

@SAHeath Could you provide some sample transaction IDs for these transactions so we can look further?

Thanks!

@RichardH,

     No further investigation needed.  After looking into the history of our transactions, the case we were trying to test was determined to have never happened in the past.  We have have dropped the test for that scenario from our testing script.

Thanks,

SAHeath
