RB S - S, JE0, K@@, X05 - This code is a sequence error

Verify the sequence of records in a batch. The order of the records should be header, parameter, detail, and trailer. The system rejects a batch that does not conform to the order of records. The batch should contain at least one valid transaction that was not deleted/voided.

Possible Causes

Solutions

No valid transactions

Determine if the batch contains at least one valid transaction.

  • If a valid transaction is present, retain and re-transmit the batch.
  • If the batch contains only one transaction that is voided and has a zero total amount, delete the batch.

VeriFone: Baud speed issue

If the RB occurs on a 330 or 380 (specifically 380 software VT13PA3), check the baud speed (fields 542/543).

If the baud speed is set to 300 baud (542/543=0), change to 1200 baud (542/543=1).

This is known to clear up chronic RB KK@@ sequence errors.

Corrupt Merchant data

Print out the merchant data screen, delete it, and re-enter it.

Incorrect Date and Time in the terminal
