Bug fix for authorization_code
field in Transaction object
authorization_code
field in Transaction objectAs noted in our documentation, the authorization_code
in the Transaction object is intended to be used by customers as a common identifier for a transaction with the card networks. This field was previously being populated in some cases with data that the network does not recognize. An example of this is in transactions only containing authorization advice where no such authorization code exists. With this bug fix, we will be setting this field to a null
value in certain cases to avoid confusion and make clear that the authorization code should not be used as a common identifier with the network for that given transaction.
