CreditCardRecognized Event (Terminal)

In This Topic

This event occurs when an unredacted Primary Account Number (PAN) is copied from the terminal (for example, when the PAN is copied to the clipboard).

This event is enabled by configuring settings on the Setup Information Privacy dialog box. For more information, see "Logging Credit Card Access" in the Reflection VBA Guide.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)

private Sub Terminal_CreditCardRecognized ( 
   ByVal sender As Object, _
   ByVal accountNumber As String, _
   ByVal user As String, _
   ByVal machineName As String, _
   ByVal userDomainName As String, _
   ByVal dateTime As String, _
   ByVal eventType As String, _
   ByVal success As Long _
)

Parameters

sender: Sender of event.
accountNumber: The card number (in redacted format) that was recognized.
user: The Windows user name of the current user.
machineName: The machine name (as set up in the system control panel).
userDomainName: The domain that the user is logged onto, or an empty string if not logged onto a Windows domain.
dateTime: The date and time that the event occurred.
eventType: The type of access that the credit card number was encountered in (eg. LiveScreen, OfficeTools, ScreenHistory, etc).
success: Reserved for future use. This currently always returns a success return code.

Remarks

This event occurs only when a PAN is copied in its entirety ("in the clear"). It is not fired when only redacted PANs are copied.
