Jared -
This chain shows where I previously asked [redacted] how to handle situations where CC needs S4 to review/clear a merchant who has filed a SAR for suspicious
activity as a prerequisite to completing an EMV install. The example I used at the time was City Limit, but in general, how should these situations be handled?
Thanks!
