Comdata Cards
Comdata cards are only supported in Base 54.02 Buypass distribution for ExxonMobil.
Comdata is a payment processor and issuer of fleet fuel cards, corporate spend cards, virtual payments, and trucking permits.

Transactions performed using Comdata proprietary Fuel cards are routed to Comdata network by Fiserv.
Transactions performed using Comdata multi cards are routed to Comdata or Master card network depending on the product and fueling position used for the transaction. If a fueling position is configured as Commercial, then all Comdata eligible products transactions (post-pay or prepay) on that fueling position are considered as commercial transactions. If a fueling position is not configured as Commercial, then all transactions on that that fueling position are considered as retail transactions.
If a site is blended or has both retail and commercial fueling positions, then all Comdata transactions are routed to Comdata network via Fiserv and all the retail transactions are routed to the Master Card network via Fiserv.

Configuring Cash Advance
The site can configure how much cash advance should be given to a commercial fleet driver. Go to the Commercial Fleet Paymentsection from Configuration Client > Payment Controller > EPS Configuration > Buypass Configuration > FEPtab to enable cash advance and enter the advance amount.
There are three ways the cash advance limit is set:
Using the Cashback Amount field in Cashback Prompt Amountssection from Configuration Client > EPS Configuration > Buypass Configuration
From the host response that comes during the pre-authorization response
From the DCT table.
Out of these three, the cash advance that appears to the customer is the lowest one. Cash advance is only given after fueling.
