Additional Card Validations for Chase Paymentech (DEV-10339)

Aria enhanced our Account Updater feature with Chase Paymentech by allowing configurable actions depending upon your business practices. A new Chase AU Response Code Handler Settings field called Response Code Q Action (with this response code matched to an internal Aria setting) has been added at the payment gateway (Configuration > Payments > Payment Gateways > Gateway Options) and collection group (Configuration > Payments > Collection Groups > Collection Group Options) levels.

The following selections are available at this field:

Selection Description
Use Payment Gateway Setting Honored at the Collection Group level.
No Action Required Default selection.
Suspend the Payment Method This will be honored for existing clients using this selection.

Service Credit Processing Enhanced to Prevent Tax Inclusive Split (DEV-10404)

Internal tax engines were enhanced to correctly process system-generated service credits for tax inclusive plans. To prevent issues, the tax inclusive split for service credit that was occurring during this process was stopped. This enhancement impacts A6 and Aria Crescendo tax inclusive plans and internal tax engines.


"Available Until" Tool Tip Added for Published Reports (DEV-10428)

A tool tip has been added (Analytics and Reporting > Reports > Published Reports) indicating that published reports will be available for viewing until the Available Until column header date, with that date included in a date range specified for automatic report deletion. This tool tip adds explanation as to why reports may not be deleted on the exact specified deletion day.

Query Times Improved for Invoice Batch Processing (DEV-10483)

Invoice batch processing has been improved because the procedure to deactivate accounts that were cancelled/suspended was optimized to ignore the status updates of previously deactivated accounts, which had been creating longer query times. This enhancement does not affect functionality.


New Currency Configuration "Currency Scale" (DEV-10530)

When some payments are sent to payment processors, the processor honors multiple decimal places for the affected currency used for payment during the collection. As an example, a payment processor honors two decimal places for the IDR (Indonesian Rupiah), even though the currency does not have decimal places. An issue arose where the payment processor accepted a payment with this currency type as having two decimals per ISO (16.40), which the processor interpreted as 100 times the intended amount ($1,640).

To resolve this, Aria has introduced a field called Currency Scale in the Currencies screen (Configuration > Billing > Currencies). This sets the currency scale for the respective currency, rounding the transaction based on the scale. The allowed values are Null or Empty (default), 0, 2, 3, and 4 decimal places.​ If the drop-down list is empty, the default currency scale for this currency defined within Aria will be used.

Note: This applies only to the Indonesian Rupiah currency type.


Application Fixes 

  • Aria has enhanced processing of contracts to ensure that the Contract End Date (in MM/DD/YYYY format, from Accounts > search for an account > Plans & Services > Contracts tab >) now initiates internal batch processing consistent with Aria Crescendo methodology. (TICKET-18527)
  • The identical list of published reports now appear both in the center Published Reports dialog as well as the left navigation column (Analytics and Reporting > Reports > Published Reports). (TICKET-18663)

API Features 

New Service Type Values for <line_type> Output For Aria APIs (DEV-10150)

To provide additional granularity in service charges, the following service type values are now returned in Aria APIs noted below:

  • 7 – For Recurring Arrears Service
  • 8 – For Order Charge Service
  • 9 – For Surcharge Service

Note To Developers: Previously, "order" lines were specified as "1" in the API calls listed below. This enhancement changes the return for orders to "8". 

This applies to the following APIs and associated output fields:

API Field
assign_supp_plan <line_type> (<supp_plan_line_items> array)
