If the original transaction was approved, and a value was passed in the duplicate window field, the payment gateway response will also include the authorization code for the original transaction. All duplicate transactions submitted after the duplicate window, whether specified in the transaction request or after the payment gateway’s default 2 minute duplicate window, are processed normally.
Response Code Details
The following tables describe the response codes and response reason texts that are returned for each transaction.
Response Code indicates the overall status of the transaction with possible values of approved, declined, errored, or held for review.
Response Reason Code is a numeric representation of a more specific reason for the transaction status.
Response Reason Text details the specific reason for the transaction status. This information can be returned to the merchant and/or customer to provide more information about the status of the transaction.
