processingType

The processingType element is an optional child of several transaction types. You use this element to define a Visa transaction used to fund a host-based prepaid product, a brokerage account, or an escrow account (accountFunding enum value). You also use it to define the initial transaction in a recurring or installment stream, or the initial, merchant initiated, or cardholder initiated Card on file transaction. For these cases, you must store the value of the networkTransactionId element returned in the response message. You use that value to populate the originalNetworkTransactionId element in subsequent recurring/installment or CoF transactions. This allows the networks to tie subsequent transactions back to the original approval.

Type = String (Enum); minLength = N/A; maxLength = N/A

Parent Elements:

authorization, captureGivenAuth, forceCapture, sale

If you set the processingType to accountFunding, you must include the businessIndicator element. Do not include this element when submitting a $0 authorization for Visa. Gaming merchants must include the CVV (cardValidationNum) in Mastercard transactions with a processingType value of cardholderInitiatedCOF.
