The current version of the application requires that any servers/client machines running the SAP B1 client and the application be using a minimum of version 4.8 of the MS .Net Framework.
TWBS Credit Card Processing (CC) installation consists of the following steps.
Third Wave SAP® Business One add-ons have been updated with a new application data logging mechanism. It will no longer place files in the users local MY DOCUMENTS directory. The application will now use the SAP® Business One defined Extensions file path.
The specified Extensions Folder path should be a network location directory that is accessible to all SAP® B1 users starting the application.
Launch the General Settings screen by selecting the General Settings menu option under the
Administration
System Initialization menu groups.
Click the Path tab along the top of the form .
Verify that a directory that is accessible to all SAP® B1 users starting the application is specified on the Extensions Folder line.
If you wish to change the Extensions Folder location, please be sure that all users are logged out of all TWBS add-on applications before the new directory is selected.
The TWBS CC add-on will only be available for installation through the SAP® Business One Server management of extensions for lightweight deployment method. Use of this method requires that the SAP® Business One System Landscape Directory be installed on the SAP® B1 Server.
Third Wave Business System SAP® Business One add-ons have been updated with an automatic licensing procedure. In order to obtain a permanent license key, the production environment SAP® Business One installation number must first be provided to TWBS Support so that the information can be entered into our systems. The SAP® Business One installation number is a critical component to the new TWBS application license keys. Without this information you will only be able to obtain a 30-day application trial license.
On start up, the application client will verify that a valid license exists for the application having been purchased based on your SAP® Business One installation number. If the license is verified, the application will start. If the application has not been purchased, a 30-day trial license will be issued to allow for limited use of the application. If your trial license has expired and you would like to purchase the application to obtain a full license key, please contact Third Wave Business Systems @ (201) 703-2100.
Throughout regular usage of the TWBS Credit Card Processing application, the software will make a license verification check once every two weeks. In the event of the loss of internet, the application will still continue to start and operate within the SAP® Business One client (with the exception of any data transmissions to/from the gateway) until the next license check performed once internet access has been restored.
The TWBS CC Processing application has been updated so that the manual allocation of user licenses to specific SAP® Business One users is no longer required. The application will automatically track when the application is connected/disconnected how many individual user licenses are currently in use.
TWBS CC Server Configuration screen access is controlled through the SAP® Business One Authorizations function.
If you are upgrading to a new version of CC from a prior version that did not store CC information as profiles in the CC gateway system, you will need to “migrate” the existing credit card information into profiles on the gateway to use the cards. Otherwise only new cards entered through this version will be usable by the application.
If you are upgrading your version of the TWBS CC application, you must create the associated database objects required for the CC application in case of any changes or additions.
These processes may take some time. The user will be notified once each process is complete.
This process will initiate a prompt by SAP® Business One that new database objects have been created and they will need to close open windows.
The TWBS Credit Card Processing application extensively utilizes stored procedure logic in the SAP® Business One company database to keep track of any marketing documents being added to the system. Follow the steps outlined below to install this logic.
Starting with version 2.0, the TWBS CC application will automatically create/update a new stored procedure in the database. This stored procedure logic will no longer require direct manipulation for logic changes.
Starting with version 2.0, the TWBS CC application will automatically create/update a new stored procedure in the database. The only code that will need to be pasted into the SAP SBO_SP_PostTransactionNotice stored procedure is a call to the TWBS CC stored procedure. When this is done during the initial installation, it will not need to be updated unless there is a stored procedure parameter change in a future release.
Any prior versions of the TWBS Credit Card stored procedure logic in either the SBO_SP_PostTransactionNotice or SBO_SP_TransactionNotification stored procedures should be removed.
If you are an existing customer upgrading to this new version and you have any kind of customization to the TWBS Credit Card Processing stored procedure logic, please contact TWBS through our Support Portal to consult about the best way to evaluate the customization prior to the installation of the new version of the application.
Please be aware that the SBO_SP_PostTransactionNotice stored procedure can be used by multiple applications and can have different code embedded in it. Make sure that you are not overwriting any existing code from other partners/applications before following the steps outlined below.
Third Wave SAP® Business One add-ons have been updated to restrict access to application screens used for setup and/or configuration. Each user that you want to provide access to these screens will need to be manually provided authorization to access the specific screen through this process.
The TWBS Server Settings authorization setting is common to all TWBS applications. Disabling access will affect all installed add-ons using this mechanism.
The TWBS CC add-on will only be available for installation through the SAP® Business One Server management of extensions for lightweight deployment method. Use of this method requires that the SAP® Business One System Landscape Directory be installed on the SAP® B1 Server.
The SAP® Business One System Landscape Directory must be installed on the SAP® B1 Server to access this option. All installations and removals of CC versions 92.1.0 and above must be performed on the SAP® B1 Server through the System Landscape Directory.
