This transaction is performed after a Pre-Authorization transaction or a Voice
Authorization (for paper Sales Draft) to confirm that the amount on hold should
be transferred to your account.
Note:
If the amount of the Advice transaction is substantially lower than the
amount of the Pre-Authorization transaction, call the Credit Card
Company and ask them to release the difference in the amounts to the
