Post a new batch of transactions to the gateway for processing.
This method implements the same batch upload functionality as the Batch Upload screens in the merchant console. Batches uploaded via this method will be visible in the Upload Manager screen.
Once a batch has been sent to the gateway for processing, it is possible to pause the batch using the pauseBatchUpload method, and resume the upload later using the runBatchUpload method.
The following fields are available for upload:
command
source
invoice
cardholder
ccnum
ccexp
avsstreet
avszip
cvc
amount
tax
description
ponum
orderid
custid
billing_company
billing_fname
billing_lname

billing_street2
billing_city
billing_state
billing_country
billing_zip
billing_phone

BatchUploadStatus createBatchUpload ( ueSecurityToken Token, string FileName, boolean AutoStart, string Format, string Encoding, string Fields, string Data, boolean OverrideDuplicates )
| Type | Name | Description |
| ueSecurityToken | Token | Merchant security token: used to identify merchant and validate transaction. |
| string | FileName | Name of upload file. Can also be used to store a reference ID. |
| boolean | AutoStart | If true, the batch will start running automatically. Otherwise the batch must be started manually, either using the runBatchUpload method or via the Merchant Console. |
| string | Format | The format of the data upload. Currently supported data formats are: csv, tab and xml. |
| string | Encoding | Data encoding method used. Supported methods include: 7bit, base64 and uuencode. |
| string | Fields | Fields being uploaded. These fields must be listed in the same order they appear in the data |
| string | Data | Transaction data being uploaded. |
| boolean | OverrideDuplicates | By default, a batch will be rejected if a certain percentage of the transactions have been uploaded before. Setting this option to true will override the duplicate check. |
