What is the "Force" mode on your quick reference card? What is different from the "Sale" mode?
Force is a type of transaction that allows you to process/re-process a sale that has a pending approval code.
There are also times when a sale requires an approval from the voice authorization number (Message: Call ND or Authorization Needed). In this instance once you received an approval code from the voice authorization number you would use the Force option to complete the sale.
