Fraud Management

The plugin provides fraud management functionality for merchants who also use the
Business Center
. You can apply fraud management functionality to transactions when:
  • Fraud management is enabled in the plugin.
  • You have a fraud management profile in the
    Business Center
    .
Fraud screening includes these features:
  • Fraud Management Essentials (FME):
     used to enforce the rules created by Cybsource Machine Learning System (MLS). Fraud management is used to define the merchant’s rules.
  • Fraud Management Rules:
    • When the decision status from the
      Business Center
       is AUTHORIZED_PENDING_REVIEW or PENDING_REVIEW, the order is in review and the order status is set to
      Payment pending for review
      .
    • When the decision status from the
      Business Center
       is AUTHORIZED_RISK_DECLINED, the order is rejected and the order status is set to
      Order cancelled by merchant
      .
The table below describes the possible decisions, outcomes, and timing Decision Manager uses when an order is triggered for review.
When these transactions are in a Decision Manager review state, certain settlement considerations apply:
  • For authorizations:
     while accepting this transaction it is not recommended to settle it in the
    Business Center
    . When the transaction is settled in the
    Business Center
    , the follow-on services initiated from OpenCart Back Office are impacted.
  • For sales:
    • The entire authorized amount should be settled in the
      Business Center
       when accepting the transaction. When the settlement is not performed in the
      Business Center
      , the follow-on services initiated from OpenCart Back Office fail.
    • A follow-on void capture will not trigger from OpenCart Back Office. While accepting review transactions, merchants should not select the settle option.
