Documentation

Definition

GUID that identifies the payment card number when payment card encryption is activated. This ID can be either unique or non-unique.

Use

The GUID is used to identify the payment card number when processing payment card information sent from the POS system to the SAP system, after being encrypted in accordance with the PCI (Payment Card Industry) rules. The GUID is specified internally by the SAP system, and does not need to be defined by the sending application (POS, POS converter, EDI subsystem or the POS interface). When sending credit card details to an SAP system through the POS IDoc interface, we recommend that you use additional security mechanisms (such as secure protocols); IDocs are not currently suitable for recording encrypted payment card numbers.

Dependencies

If the field is filled, it contains a masked value for the payment card number in the credit card segment of the IDoc (in accordance with the SAP system settings for payment card security), so making the original card number invisible.
