Thanks, everyone, for your feedback. Sandy Luckhurst reached out through e-mail and we talked on the phone about how her organization handles credit card processing. She shared her 10 years of experience with me and knowledge with IATS and Authorize.net as well as the reports she uses to reconcile their...

I want to put this out there for all RE users to consider and help us come up with a solution.

I do run a listing out of RE of all credit card payments each month for the business office to reconcile with their listing of transactions. With gift dates, this provides the information...

We are currently using IATS through RE batch, and have had instances where credit cards are charged multiples times, but have not been committed multiples times into the RE database. My understand was that IATS charges the credit cards on the commit process, so I'm confused as to why cards would...
