Every CDC transaction processed at the POS – whether the payment was approved, declined, cancelled, or overridden – must be reported to the Australian Government's Central Platform.
LS Central identifies a CDC transaction by checking the card BIN returned by the PED against the BINs registered on the tender type (see Tender Card Bin). When a match is found, a Transaction Data Upload record is created for the transaction and sent to the Central Platform API.
What is captured
Each upload contains the information required by the Central Platform, including:
- Store and POS terminal identifiers.
- Transaction date, time, and number.
- Transaction type (S for sale, R for refund or void).
- Restricted-item totals and non-restricted totals.
- The Restricted Items Flag sent to the PED and the PED response (Approved, Declined, Cancelled).
- The manager override flag, Staff ID, and timestamp, if applicable.
