Credit ForceAuth

When an authorization has previously been obtained via an auth transaction or through voice
authorization, a forceauth can be performed to complete the transaction and receive payment. Before
running the forceauth transaction, the merchant must contact their host provider and obtain an
authorization number for the transaction. Also, if the merchant tries to batch out and there is a
transaction that has been authorized but did not have a postauth ran on it, that transaction can be
forced as well.
