The accounting and
book-keeping software have given a new lease to the small and medium-sized
industries. The Sage 50 software, one such resourceful program, comes with
several embedded features to assist in the business operations. While the
software can help in innumerable ways, there are times when one might get a
‘Sage Decline error or the TSYS codes'.
What is Sage Decline/Error TSYS error?
The Sage Decline/Error TSYS error is a bank-related error, which can occur due to any number
of reasons, and hugely depends upon how the security features of the bank
operate. Since Sage 50 comes with additional security and safety features given
the fact that it has to deal with financial transactions, the decline errors
occur when there is a breach in security.
Also, on many
occasions, the bank might decline a particular transaction, because of a valid
reason from their points, such as unlisted or unauthorized transaction, or a
wrong Pin number provided and so on. These Sage decline errors are to be given
highest priority and dealt with, efficiently by calling in the Sage technical
support help desk.
How to identify a TSTS for what it represents?
Each Sage decline error
code represents a particular problem with a transaction. Since each one
indicates a unique problem with the bank dealings, it is advisable to address
them individually. Let us look at some of the TSYS codes and what do they
indicate.
