Overview
The Connections tab is designed to allow for merchants to adjust which integration/merchant accounts the Payment Terminal is connected to. Note that these settings change depending on which QuickBooks company file is open.
Options/Buttons
Add New Account
Connect a new integration account to this company file. Review the directions below for more information.
Display Name
The display name for this integration account in the Payment Terminal. This is purely for display, and is only shown in the Account menu at the top-right.
Company ID
The five-digit company ID provided by your merchant services provider or the Payment Terminal Services department (not your Merchant ID/MID or Terminal ID/TID). This identifies your merchant account to our servers.
Store Key/User ID
The store key is a long string of characters, and the user ID is another five-digit number. These user credentials are provided by your merchant services provider or the Payment Terminal Services department, and identify this user to our servers.
By default, the Payment Terminal Services department may configure your account to only have one user ID, unless requested otherwise.
Country
The country this merchant account will be used in. Required for compliance purposes.
Default
If using multiple integration accounts with this company file, this account will be loaded by default.
Test
Tests the connection to the servers for the integration. This should be used when connecting a new account.
Delete
Deletes the integration account from the Payment Terminal.
This does not cancel your integration account - to do so, please contact Payment Terminal Services or your merchant services provider.
Save
Saves any changes to the currently-selected integration account.
The green SAVE button will save all changes overall, whereas this option only saves the changes to the credentials for the current integration account.
