Processing cutoff maintenance (PMDCTOFF) is checked if the activation date is today. The current host time is checked against the Processing Cutoff Time maintained.

Processing Cut-off time check is done only for transaction with payment Activation date is the current date.

If payment processing time is lesser than or equal to the Cutoff date-time derived, then the payment is considered as ‘Pre-Cutoff’ payment and proceeds with further processing.

If payment processing time exceeds the Cutoff date-time derived, then the payment is considered as ‘Post Cutoff’ payment and the post cutoff status is updated for the transaction.
