AcceptorAuthorisationRequestV01

caaa.001.001.01

Scope The AcceptorAuthorisationRequest message is sent by the card acceptor to the acquirer or its agent when an online authorisation is required for the card payment transaction. Usage The AcceptorAuthorisationRequest message may embed the information required for transferring to the acquirer the data needed to perform the financial settlement of the transaction (capture). An intermediary agent may act on behalf of the card acceptor or of the acquirer in providing additional functionality such as: switching to different acquirers, loyalty processing or management of the acceptor system.

Message Construction

Every ISO20022 message has at the highest level what we call ‘building blocks’. Because the message is constructed as immutable records, the association is by composition. Below you can see the relationship between the message and its constituent building blocks: For comparison, see the ISO20022 official specification

Now, we will zero-in one-by-one on each of these building blocks.

Extensibility and generalization considerations

To facilitate generalized design patterns in the system, the AcceptorAuthorisationRequestV01 implementation follows a specific implementaiton pattern. First of all, AcceptorAuthorisationRequestV01 impleemnts IOuterRecord indicating it is the outermost logical part of the message definition. Like all message wrappers, AcceptorAuthorisationRequestV01Document implements IOuterDocument. Because AcceptorAuthorisationRequestV01 implements IOuterDocument, it is a suitable template parameter for IOuterDocument, and causes the internal ‘Message’ to be of type AcceptorAuthorisationRequestV01.

classDiagram
    class IOuterRecord
    AcceptorAuthorisationRequestV01 --|> IOuterRecord : Implements
    AcceptorAuthorisationRequestV01Document --|> IOuterDocument~AcceptorAuthorisationRequestV01~ : Implements
    class IOuterDocument~AcceptorAuthorisationRequestV01~ {
        AcceptorAuthorisationRequestV01 Message
     }
  

Document wrapper for serialization

The only real purpose AcceptorAuthorisationRequestV01Document serves is to cause the document to be serialized into the ‘urn:iso:std:iso:20022:tech:xsd:caaa.001.001.01’ namespace. Therefore, it will probably be the usual practice to build the message and construct this wrapper at the last minute using AcceptorAuthorisationRequestV01.ToDocument() method. The returned AcceptorAuthorisationRequestV01Document value will serialize correctly according to ISO 20022 standards.

Sample of message format

This is an abbreviated version of what the message should look like.

<Document xmlns="urn:iso:std:iso:20022:tech:xsd:caaa.001.001.01">
    <AccptrAuthstnReq>
        <Hdr>
            <!-- Header inner content -->
        </Hdr>
        <AuthstnReq>
            <!-- AuthorisationRequest inner content -->
        </AuthstnReq>
