Java

This example uses the USAePay Java library. For directions on how to install the library and create the token/client objects, go to the Java JAX-WS Howto.

    try {

    //Creating Close Batch Request object
    CloseBatchRequest Request = new CloseBatchRequest();

    Request.setToken(token);

    //Setting batchRefNum to 0 for current batch, for a different batch set to the Batch Ref Num
    Request.setBatchRefNum(BigInteger.ZERO);

    CloseBatchResponse Result = client.closeBatch(Request);

    } catch (Exception e) {
        System.out.println("Soap Exception: " + e.getMessage());
    }
