What it does
This update allows merchants to define a specific delay for idempotent refund retries triggered by SOS. By extending the retry window; merchants can accommodate third-party payment connectors that require more than the previous 8-second default to process requests.
Benefits
- Eliminate duplicate operations: Prevent race conditions where a retry is sent while the initial request is still processing
- Increased stability: Align VTEX's financial logic with the specific latency of your payment providers
- Reduced support overhead: Minimize 'unexpected behavior' tickets caused by timeout-induced retries
How to use
Access the Smart Order System (SOS) configuration via the VTEX Admin or API to set the 'refund_retry_delay' parameter according to your connector's requirements.
