Can't you authorize a transaction and settle it later? Thats what I would consider the standard way of doing this. Its just like taking a credit card, and then not being able to charge it because you can't ship the goods until X days in the future.
If I understand the process correctly, auth'ing an amount reserves the funds under the cc owner's limit so they are not available for other transactions, but doesn't actually take them until the settlement order comes through. There is a time limit on doing this I believe so if you'd be looking at long lead times that would be an issue. -- --mattRobertson-- Janitor, MSB Web Systems mysecretbase.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
