Qualification – Depending on your pricing plan all transactions may not be processed at the same rate.

Typically, clients use the information to quantify and evaluate the amount and the percentage of sales that were processed at higher rates.
Non-Qualification - This selection provides information regarding the count and dollar amount of transactions which failed the edit criteria for the given Association, and thus were “downgraded” from the best possible rate to the given settlement rate.
Downgrades – Allows a user to see the reasons why transactions didn’t qualify at the best rate as expected. This can help identify potential opportunities at the point of sale to reduce processing expenses

Special Scenarios- Tips & Tricks
Multiple TIDs per MID:
• The Client may want to have reporting done by TID in order to differentiate business segments in which
units are located. Custom reporting will allow you to group together transactions by TID.
• Best Practice- 72 hours prior to the call, enroll as a merchant user and generate custom reporting to
show grouping options by TID. You can then use these reports to compare MSA funding to ClientLine
funding and review the reporting options with the client.
