  • Publication number: 20230334498
    Abstract: Technologies for preprocessing transaction authorization records for clearing data batch file generation include a settlement processing server. The settlement processing server receives transaction authorization records corresponding to authorized transactions. The transaction authorization records are appended to an initial authorization stream. The initial authorization stream is closed and the transaction authorization records appended thereto are split into substreams. The settlement processing server preprocesses the transaction authorization records in each of the substreams. While the transaction authorization records appended to the substreams are preprocessed, the settlement processing server initializes another authorization stream and appends newly received transaction authorization records thereto. A clearing data batch file is generated based at least in part on the transaction authorization records appended to each of the substreams. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
