Credit Card Processing Available for Commander

For Immediate Release

AIMS Releases Automated Credit Card Processing for COMPAS Commander

Monroe, LA - July 17, 2007 – AIMS, Inc. announces the release of the Credit Card Processing module for its COMPAS Commander marketer accounting software series. AIMS’ experience with electronically importing, sorting, posting and applying credit card credits dates back to 1994. All of the requested improvements AIMS has gathered from users since then have been incorporated in Commander’s Credit Card module.

Commander’s Credit Card module improves upon earlier versions of this module by allowing the user to pick and apply posted credit card credits from an easy-to-comprehend display during:

Entry of receipts-on-account,
Creation of customer (wholesale) invoices,
Or creation of consigned dealer or
c-store invoices.

Commander creates a voucher that accompanies each of these transactions, so the marketer can send his/her customers a detailed record of their credit card credits that have been consumed.

Besides processing major oil company credit cards, this module also works with VISA, MasterCard, AMEX, and other non-brand-specific cards. Each type of card can have

its own unique set-up for fee-handling. Almost any arrangement for splitting, assigning or absorbing fees can be accommodated automatically. Card processing fees will post to Commander’s GL and to each dealer’s expenses, as desired.

Commander’s Credit Card module keeps detailed historical card batch records for each retail location or customer that accepts credit cards.

Like its parent system, COMPAS Commander, the Credit Card Processing module has been produced using the VB.NET Framework set of programming tools and it operates on Microsoft’s SQL Server database.
