Overview

👉 The Reprint request is used to reprint the receipt of a previously completed transaction.

The client app must implement a mechanism to send messages using Android intents and URI calls and to receive the result in a custom URI callback.

• Reprint request originating from the client app to reprint a transaction receipt.
• Reprint response originating from the ‘Viva.com Terminal’ application to return the result of a reprint request.

Reprint request

For a typical Reprint request, the client app must provide the following information:

Field	Description	Example	Card Termimal Support	Character limit	Type
scheme	The Viva's custom URL scheme, the host and the version.	'vivapayclient://pay/v1'
appId	The client app ID. For successful validation, should not be empty.	'com.example.myapp'
action	print. For successful validation, should not be empty.	'print'
command	reprint. For successful validation , should not be empty.	'reprint'
orderCode	If not empty should be integer bigger than zero and length 16.	'1020304050607080'			integer (int32)
callback	The URI callback that will handle the result. For successful validation, should not be empty.	'mycallbackscheme://result'

The above information elements must create a URI call, i.e.

String reqStr = "vivapayclient://pay/v1"
		+ "&appId=com.example.myapp"
		+ "&action=print"
		+ "&command=reprint"
		+ "&orderCode=1020304050607080"
		+ "&callback=mycallbackscheme://result";

Intent payIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse( reqStr));
payIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
payIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_EXCLUDE_FROM_RECENTS);
startActivity(payIntent);

Reprint response

After executing a Reprint request, the ‘Viva.com Terminal’ application responds with a response to indicate if the reprint request has been successful or not.

The result is received as a URI in the callback activity intent:

Uri result = getIntent().getData();

The table below summarises the contents of an approved response.

Field	Description	Example	Card Termimal Support
callback	The URI callback that will handle the result.	'mycallbackscheme://result'
status	The status of the reprint action	'success'
message	A string containing information about the reprint status.	'Printing successful'
action	Print. For successful validation, should not be empty.	'print'

A reprint response result looks as follows:
