Comparing Payer Authentication and Payment Reports

There might be differences between the Payer Authentication report and the payment reports because an authenticated transaction might not be authorized.

The values (amounts and counts) in the Payer Authentication report might not match exactly your other sources of reconciliation. This report shows the transactions validated by payer authentication. There might be a different number of transactions that were authorized. Reconciliation discrepancies are more likely if you process your authorizations outside of .

Thejava.io.PrintWriter@683231c1 amounts and numbers can be higher in the Payer Authentication report than in the payment reports. In this example, it shows the results of the first two numbers in the Payer Authentication report and the last one in the payment reports.

To reconcile your reports more easily when using payer authentication, we recommend that you attempt to authenticate the same amount that you want to authorize.
