Cybersource
Advanced Merchants: Handling
Decision Manager
Reviews

The information in this section applies only to
Cybersource
Advanced merchants.
If you use
Decision Manager
, you may also receive the
REVIEW
value in the
decision
field.
REVIEW
means that
Decision Manager
has marked the order for review based on how you configured the
Decision Manager
rules.
If you will be using
Decision Manager
, you have to determine how to handle the new
REVIEW
value. Ideally, you will update your order management system to recognize the
REVIEW
response and handle it according to your business rules. If you cannot update your system to handle the
REVIEW
response, we recommend that you choose one of these options:
  • If you authorize and capture the credit card payment at the same time, treat the
    REVIEW
    response like a
    REJECT
    response. Rejecting any orders that are marked for review may be appropriate if your product is a software download or access to a Web site. If supported by your processor, you may also want to reverse the authorization.
  • If you approve the order after reviewing it, convert the order status to
    ACCEPT
    in your order management system. You can request the credit card capture without requesting a new authorization.
  • If you approve the order after reviewing it but cannot convert the order status to
    ACCEPT
    in your system, request a new authorization for the order. When processing this new authorization, you must disable
    Decision Manager
    . Otherwise the order will be marked for review again. For details about the API field that disables
    Decision Manager
    , see the .
Alternately, you can specify a custom business rule in
Decision Manager
so that authorizations originating from a particular internal IP address at your company are automatically accepted.
If supported by your processor, you may want to reverse the original authorization.
